Perhaps mdcc tester can verify this for me.

Nobody can tell anything from a low resolution image taken under unknown lighting conditions of a component which failed under unknown load conditions.

C.S. Grupetto is a cycling club..... arch enemies of Rollapaluza.

aaah kl i thought it might be cycling sports group - cannondale uk dist.

My new frame is coming with a quil seatpost WTF?

Looks neat at least.

make sure you get the rubber seal to go round it where it goes into the frame. i have seen a stream post that looked like it had molded because it didn't have the seal.

we have a BMC using the same seatpost at work

where are you working ed?

The new Wimbledon Evans shop, quite possibly the biggest Evans I've seen insofar.

hahah you working with Pong?

^ probably a bit of both no? Oh and as for weight, a Masterpeice is +£115, so not really comparable to a £65 post. Which is about what a standard Thomson is.

Smallflurry - I'm trying to work that out... I guess the little allen key bolt on the side adjusts the quill so you can raise the post with a saddle on.

I'm just not quite sure how it does that?
The bolt is,nt round. Turning it pulls the carbon thread, attached via a ring, taught.1/4 to loosen or tighten. No way to over torque it.

yeah, I,ve heard of squeaking issues too. Any idea where I could source one?

Picked up the Lynskey. Seems very nice to ride and looks great for real. Weight is 7.3kg, even with a fairly heavy alu 3T seatpost and seat with non-carbon rails...

Pretty much. that guy's a selling machine.

The Lynskey looksa fast... would prefer it with less stickers though they draw the eye away from the awesomeness of the frame.

Weight is 7.3kg,

With no gears? Porker.

4.8 kg at the moment

Did I accidentally click on the weighweenies forum? Still, quite good for a cheap bike, my 585 would be 5.1kg in that state.

Nice frame, shame the seattube is too short. Your legs are soo long compared to your reach!

Its fun. Advertised as a 59 c-c. Is in fact a 59 c-t. And lets bear in mind that the seat tube extends beyond the top tube.

That Aende looks fantastic, too small for you? give it to me then.

Flowmont, if you ever sell that Aende I will have it, pronto.
Don't hesitate, just PM me and it's done deal. Thanks. ;)

It does look small for you. ;P

Or.... you can swap it with my Favorit, which is 61cm c-t.

Nuknow. This is tempting to say the least. Where can I see more photos? Give me some vital statistics on the geo and measurements too and lets cut the crap and get down to business!
