Lunch time bike purchase.

New bike = win

Evans = fail

Ah, yeah, I do remember. The guy serving me served you. So I take it you saw it with the massive wide bars attached? Thye will be trimmed to 410mm. But I'm keeping the drops and the stem for future use.

I dont generally like riding on drops when commuting for neck pain/control reasons.

only yanking yer chain, enjoy the bike........

I feckin hope so ;) Never liked soggy chips

While I was riding home on the old bike she suddenly felt all smooth and fast. How do machines know when they're about to be relegated to second. Cant wait till friday...

Got the bike! Sweeeeeeet. Although...

The wheels are made of overcooked spaghetti. Need some serious spoke tension put on them. As it is I'm considering putting my old cheap wheels on. The bonus is that then I don't have to swap the randonuers over.

Also slightly worried the 56 is a tad too large. Everything's comfortable but it just feels so different. Guess thats the higher bb and shorter wheelbase? Possibly need to cut down the steerer by 10-15mm and get rid of the spacers.

Anyway, first time riding fixed too. Now thats a weird experience! Took about 2 miles before I remembered to keep the legs moving while going over bumps and dodging holes. I think after a few weeks when I'm building up the skills I'll really start to enjoy it.

Sick of looking at a computer now. Got new bike to play with and some cold beers.

well done, im sure you will love it once you are used to it.

They train Evans Staff to carefully profile customers, approach them at the right time and right way, and then use simple but dastardly effective psychology to clinch the deal.

They spend a lot of time and money getting everthing perfect, shop temperature, layout etc to make you buy buy buy.
