reminds me to put mine up will try tomorrow

I got the Bauer rolling a few days ago. I will probably get burned on here for the mismatch of parts but it is a work in progress. It is nice to finally ride it!

I also traded some bits to a friend for this frame and fork.

Another project time damn it but I love New Zealand made frames!

Nice! Look forward to seeing them on Tuesaday night Bike Gang sometime soon!

...hope that helps

It certainly does. Great info, thanks.

Just finished this-

Lovely bike. I vote for more campy (strada with an bashguard or Triple Strada with two bashguards) and also gumwalls. Maybe the Challenge Grifo clincher is it for you?

Edit:

i hope to set "her" with a dura-ace track crankset soon...

Yep. That's mine. It's in really good condition.

actually, i think you are mistaken. this one shown here, is team telekom colors. the darker bits are actually black. the one i have is not team colors, and the darker bits are dark blue.
so which one have you got? :)

• not sure if spelled "mistaken" correctly, given the context
  

All this Condor business makes me want to get mine out. Just waiting on a Thomson stem and then done...

In readiness for winter I've just made the most of the Ribble sale and ordered half price Sram apex shifters and deraileurs. I'll be kitting out the cross bike to serve as both occasional cross racer and geared winter bike.

Also looking to have a new rear wheel built for the fixed road bike, with Ambrosio Exellights. Not sure which hubs yet. Something with either a hollow axle or allen bolts as I hate carrying a spanner.

My condor is pretty much finished

(I'll take better photos when the weather clears up a bit)

Quite light actually, 19lbs dead on

needs an extra inch and a half of seatpost if you asks me

not funny sion, i'm in a state of mourning.

aka i took it for a ride today and its is too small.
i hate everything and i'm going to lock myself in my room and sulk.
