  • fat pants is your seat post back to front?

  • Only just discovered this thread!

    Bike 2 looks like this:

    Bike 1 looks slightly less like this, since I wrote off the frame :(

    And I look like this (all the time):

    Those b*stards at Condor charge so much money for their bikes then go and put the decals on the wrong way round, unbelievable !

  • @Chris, i would if i could :( Point taken though, i need to learn all these fixed rules :P

    @Ant, yeah, damn well priced bikes that don't quite fit... Reachwise, it meant i sat on the end of the saddle which, as you know, isn't comfortable. I know it's to get your knee in the right position with the crank but yeah, it works.

    Picked up that beast for 300 quid when the wheelset cost that much and had only done about 100 miles + a free bike basically.

  • @ Fat Pant, I know what you mean. I have all sorts of issues fitting on bikes, long femur and short arms!!!

  • You have freakishly long arms.

  • @ broker - ive got the same pug frame sitting around somewhere. it was my first conversion (brings back memories). also, by any chance are you a tall chap? that stem is mahoooosive

  • back on the road after a week spraying and sanding and spraying and sanding and spraying and blah blah blah.

    and here's another mug shot for good measure. second from right:

  • You have freakishly long arms.

    this made me giggle out loud and blow a little snot bubble of joy.

    didn't see it first time round as i was distracted by his mate's anti-gravity hover-hat.

  • Hi there, name's Will and I've been fixed for 2 years.

  • Well that didn't work... Hope this will...
    This is my ride at the moment:

  • Old Caloi 10 frame (might paint it sometime), Chainring, cranks and BB are Campagnolo and the hubs and cog (not in this pic) are Shimano Dura-ace. Rims are Arraya and Tubular (yes I do!) are Vittoria Rally. Gearing is 48/16 as I live in a tropical island...

    Swapping out the goofy stem and fitting risers soon to get the same hight. Current stem might prove handy for a low pro build like this dirty bitch though >>>

  • ^ That's a clown bike.
    Knees in your nose...

  • Looks awesome though.

  • Hi there, name's Will and I've been fixed for 2 years.

    How long were you broken for?

  • I live in a tropical island...

    which one?

  • and here's another mug shot for good measure. second from right:

    i think i know the guy far left.
    is he something to do with wimbledon college of art?

  • Mates with the invisible man +rep

  • The whip

    And the usual expression on my face when I'm riding.

  • you got this from my bro alex, right?
    looks really nice, i love the colour, looks ace in person

  • How long were you broken for?

    I went for the "Addicted Meetings" approach on that one...

    I'd say the other 24 years before I got fixed... :) But I've been riding BMX for a while before that...

  • which one?

    umm... It's called Ilha de São Vicente, which would be "Saint Vincent's Island", in Brazil... moved from London to here this year.
    Not much of a paradise, but it's an island...
