I wanted a fast, geared bike to accompany the two fixed gear bikes and the classic tourer that I already own, so I built this. Looking forward to a fast, fun summer, then a respray over winter.

Cheers Gaz. Yours is coming along nicely. I'm a bit gutted that this bike has cost me actual cash money, 'cos I had to buy tubs and wanted a shimano 600 seatpost and a period-specific Turbo saddle. Otherwise, everything woulda been partbin special. Cost in total - £150ish.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
