    Picked up a new ride (yay!)

    It's got 105 flight deck shifters on (they're either 5500 or 5600 series, I'm not sure), and the brake cable coming out of the side of the shifter rather than routing under the bar tape annoys me inordinately (boo!)

    Anyone got a pair of 10spd shifters for sale anywhere?

    I'd consider Ultegra as well, if the price is right.

    Does anyone know if the geometry changed between the '16 and '19 models?

    Right, as can be seen from my predilection for beards and flat caps, combined with my ever advancing decrepitude, ICGAF about newfangled nonsense like instagram. Looks like I'll be getting a 2016 model and giving it an overhaul

    (if it hasn't got thru axles what does it use? All my previous bikes have been rim brakes ... spot the n00b)

    ((and what're the pros/cons of the headset type))

    Red just doesn't suit me :)

    The grey/black/yellow looks lush mind

    Hmmm, given a new 2o19 model is £2000 list, and this is 25% of that I can probably live with a lack of thru axles and a different headset ...

    Morning

    Considering picking up a Genesis Equilibrium with the insurance money from my last bike (written off by a pillock in a Golf pulling out on me)

    I've seen what looks like a very good deal on a 2016 Equilibrium Disc (nigh on identical to the first bike picture in this entire thread), and am interested to know the differences between the 2016 and 2019 Equilibrium Disc 20, and t'internet isn't throwing much up - they're both 725 steel, come with 105, and tbh, the 2016 paint job is infinitely sexier.

    Any help anywhere on this?
