    Hmmmmm....

    Maybe a single speed will do then.........

    Will see how my training gets on.

    Mikec, you can rent, but I want to buy just in case I bugger it up. Are you planning on doing the London Tri? It will be my first one. The swim scares me greatly.

    BDW - it's the London course, so hopefully pretty flat, but I want to save as much energy as possible, so gears make sense. (Sadly)

    Wow, quick response chaps, cheers!

    Guess your working year hasn't really kicked of yet...

    I am tempted to get a cheap geared bike, but will the aluminium frame feel sloopy compared to my steel Reynolds on the flyer?

    Thanks again!

    I really hate to ask, and I'm sure there will be some backlash, but here goes.....

    I am doing the London Triathlon in August and so will be needing a bike with gears. As much as I would like to buy myself a carbonfibre two grand monster, I cannot.

    So, my question is......can I put gears on my Single Speed? I have a Genesis Flyer Frame with Miche Pista wheels.

    Any help or a point in the right direction would be much appreciated.

    I promise to change it back after..........

    Unklesouth, I might be keen on that frame.

    Sorry to jump in on your thread xsheepx, but....

    I'm looking for a frame for my 5 2" missus as well, so if xsheepx is priced out of the market, or drops out, I may be interested.

    Obviously I wouldn't enter into a bidding war, but if you're not keen xsheepx, I might be.

    Damn, only the trainers left, and they're not even my size!

    Shame, as they would look pretty sweet alongside my Adicolour Kermit the Frog Stan Smiths......
