Going to be selling my fancy racing bike to buy or build up a more relaxed easy bike. Both to cycle and maintain. Getting tired of having to spend money on upkeep and not being able to keep it working at it's best.
Bit of a pussy move, possibly, but I just wanna enjoy riding it. And maybe have a basket. And not have to walk in cleats. And flat bars.
Don't like the thought of being overtaken though..
Not entirely sure what I am after. If you have some some parts or a build that may suit please suggest it. I ride 59cm.
Smiff that would be great but misses the objective of saving money.
Think I am after a dutch bike, preferably a Gazelle. With a few tweaks to make it ready to race London..

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.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
