Sort of my first proper fixed... 1st impressions.

Platini I was sticking up for Campag as I know you've got a down on them. As for jealous, uh-huh...

Shimano pedals, surely?

Ya know.. all this time and I don't think I'd ever seen that particular Sheldon page.

Illy,
Yeah, Shimano pedals, they work and they're cheap. One can take brand-obsession too far - I speak as someone who once had a Campag groupset on a Cannondale mountain bike... It was crap.

Saddle like a razor blade?

I were right about that saddle though (is the line annoyingly cut off the end)

I've now fiited the Rush with straight bars and the Mavic wheels I bought off MrSmith, so I thought I'd post another picture;

I've also changed the pony skin Fizik Pave for a Selle Royal I had knocking about, the Fizik looked great but was incredibly uncomfortable when riding in trousers without a chamois insert, so it had to go. You might also notice the new binder;

I've been having trouble with the seat-post slipping and had two (el cheapo) cro-mo seat binder bolts sheer in a week, my brother gave me the combination binder for my birthday a couple of years and it was the only thing I had to hand that'd do the job, it'll stay till I can lay my hands on a decent binder.

The bike remains lots of fun. I'll post another picture once the steel fork is fitted and I've got some risers on.
