Where is the bike?

*I'll get my coat...

Was considering camo bartape for my latest project, now I've seen that, black it is.

It looks like Kermit overdid the V02 max interval session.

poor @andyBmore.

I knew there was another stupid looking logic somewhere...

Build-by-numbers Road Logic instead of HHS radness, your call obviously.

Goodness gracious. Proof, if it were needed, that green can be added to the list of colours that gold components don't go with.

Red and green should never be seen .
Anyway as the only one on this thread with a 49 grey ritchey it's actually not bad . It has a gloss lacquer over the top and you dont get bored of it. White bar tape is best.

Tredz cages have shipped.

Important question: how do people feel about matching vs mismatching bottle colours on a 2 bottle cage system?

What's the best white bartape option? For being able to keep it clean and stuff.

My go to is fizik soft touch but as a white might be high maintenance.

The normal microtex version of the same scrubs up easily

Mismatching cages are a no go.
White bar tape is easy to clean using washing powder and hot water.
When's the frame due?

Cotton bar tape imho

Goodness gracious. Proof, if it were needed, that green can be added to the list of colours that gold components don't go with.

Shit.

And I just had this finished:

Paint by @hoops presumably?

This. Stays white for ages.

Now that we've got principles of matching your watch to your car to your bike out of the way...

I've got to find a 165mm ultegra 6800 crank.

Only ebay option is a 10spd here.

Any other options. New at Evans is £150. Eeep.

10/11 speed cranks will work fine whichever groupset

Because its thinner for 11 speed I understand the 6800 will wear out quicker. 6750 compact then .

So far not seen any picks of anything new from the berlin bike show.

4700 comes in 165mm as well

6800 here http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/shimano-ultegra-6800-compact-11-speed-chainset/rp-prod108720

5800 here http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/shimano-105-5800-11-speed-double-chainset-black/rp-prod116491
