...had a read, and ok, and this falls under the bracket of a pointless post...I guess it would have been better to introduce myself...
I've been running about on a Kona, built up as a SS, white brothers carbon forks, rear hope mini, slicks, retro syncross stem, and some nice short raceface straight bars- easiest and best way to go in my opinion, especially for city riding, nice and simple. I'm soon to be bringing a nice old Italian steed back from Milan which will be getting an overhaul and a vintage build, seeing as its from late 60s early 70s I believe to keep it 'period' (at least aesthetically) to be entirely appropriate! (I'm not a hipster and new to this I may add!)...my main reason for joining was to possibly source parts for the vintage build, and to make use of the area forums, so I can get in touch with the local riders about maybe a bit of polo and some rides/ social events.
