Howdy! My two bikes..
2008 Giant Bowery. Fairly standard but has Ultegra brake callipers and koolstop pads. Running it fixed with SPD pedals (not pictured) which seems like a good combo - I certainly enjoy riding it. Need to ditch the weird "suspension" seatpost at some point and get a better saddle, and quite like the thought of a better wheelset at some point but.. for now no real plans!
My roadbike :) Built earlier this year.. my first attempt at a bike build of any kind (having only previously changed innertubes and stuff) and it all went great. It's a Planet X High Modulus carbon nanolight frame, full shimano 105 5700 groupset (and 105 spd-sl pedals), Mavic Aksium wheelset, FSA omega compact drops, FSA SL-K seatpost, Charge Spoon Ti saddle.. umm.. and a few other bits I don't remember. Really happy with how it all turned out! Looking forward to putting some miles on it over the summer :)
