Carbon, Shades AND Smoking? - So cool.

Carbon, Shades AND Smoking? - So cool.

Oooo sarcasm.

Sorry, just found it funny.

I saw someone (that looked like Dan LJ) speeding round town on an old school full suspension klein last week. Anyone kow them? It was a good looking bike!

My Park/Street and occasionaly trails bike (Pic from my mates bikebuilds blog)

My Eurobike (Bianchi Infinito)

And currently part way through building up a Dolan Track Champion.
Pics once its done, and I need to get decent pics of the Bianchi.

Thats a tasty dirtbike.

It's even tastier in real life. Get the Dolan finished already!

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 :)

Current state.

aw we need a 'roller off! Mine's still not how I want it...

Get that back tire off! They are awful mines died after a week

What tyre is it?

Looking good thom. That chain is hella rusty tho.

Nah it's cool I lubed that bitch up.

B43's looking good ;)

One of those conti supersports, gone through mine already

Yeah it's a Continental Supersport I got from Sprocket. Seems alright to me.. I don't really skid unless I can help it to be honest. It's super tough.
