  • Noooooo do the frame some justice :-(

  • Just ordered a set of Miche Pistards for £90. win.

    Hehe they're nice, if I were you I'd desticker them though. I did that with mine (check my thread).
    Only bad thing is that they're quite heavy.

  • Noooooo do the frame some justice :-(

    Have you ever rode them?

  • Nope. Its just sounding like a porn build. But they're not porn wheels...

  • Like I said, the Miche wheelset will only be on until I can afford to bust £400+ on a set of wheels.

  • Yeah man fair play. My DA hubs are 2nd hand but in incredibly good nick, and 110mm spaced. I've only spent £230 on them and they're laced to TB14s with DT swiss competition spokes. Don't need to spend 400 quid to get nice wheels :-)

  • It's the carbon that would have killed me!

  • Same here, got some DA7710 hubs laced with DT comp spokes to some kinlin rims, Set comes in at 1500 grams and has cost me 200 pounds :).

  • Just to add, I did have to buy the hubs from Japan and pay 20 quid imports.

  • My wheelset was £90 posted.

    I originally set myself out with a budget of £500 for a complete bike, before I came across this frame. I'm already way, way over budget, but would like to keep it around £900

  • Hehe, it's an expensive hobby. My miche wheelset was 125 pounds posted and will be for daily use, I think that's good value. And destickered they look quite nice.

  • In all honesty, £900 is a lot of money, but over your entire lifetime and how much enjoyment I'll get out of this, it's more of an investment.

  • It is, and you have to ride it a lot before the money will turn into fun haha ;d.

    You could have had these sexy little things for £200

  • I could have, but they aren't 90 quid!

  • Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet.

  • Gold chain???

  • ^ camera flash

  • :-)

  • nice little collection going

  • will be shiny

  • ^ camera flash

    Nope, gold and black (well, very, very dark blue)

  • :-(

  • Just ordered this

    I know it's fugly but I intend to enter a few TTs and such so I deffo need it to be legal. This is going to be my 'do it all' bike

    Was going to get it in silver to match the crank, but decided I want it as understated as possible, so may strip it and re-paint to remove logos.
