  • I ruddy love this bike.

  • Full mavic starfish group set?

  • Briefcase. Ben you're 16 ffs.

  • ^^Do it.. Then loose the rack, put on drops and stop being silly..

  • le sigh I might just do that, with a nice porteur front rack

  • No.. Don't go for drops, this is perfect..just lower the basket and have done

  • not drops...a brooks

  • no drops/brooks, just a silver post to finish it off. love it

  • You are a tall bastard aren't you?
    Saw you riding past the Red Lion. Took me too long to work it through mentally after a 4hr sit in traffic.

  • yep, 6"4
    just coming back from mini centre!
    what car you in?

  • It's my dad's. I'm long home now, I spent the 4hr sit on the M25 on the way down from Nottingham.

  • A lot of change has occurred. No longer is this a school sled, it is now my training and road racing weapon of steel destruction :D
    Lots of new shiny parts came flowing through my door like it was Christmas and likewise my money flowed out of my bank account a bit too swiftly :P



    Sorry about the long rear brake cable. Ordered a 3.5mm allen key in order to fit those damn brakes and after installing them I lose the bastard of a key. Hopefully my new one should arrive tomorrow. Needs a silver inline thomson seat post too and a couple links taken out of the chain.

  • Love the campag brakes. How much did they set you back?

  • quite a bit, but worth it imo

  • Definately. I will own a set one day!

  • Phew! Much better!

    Apart from deltas, which are only for looking at - not riding.

  • I actually quite like the deltas, the front one is prefect for group riding and the rear one stops me :P

  • Tasty.
