Thats lovely.... Definitely my favorite (looking) version of the XTR groupset too, those chainsets were great.

My old boss had a Dawes Nomad, he did a couple of heavy loaded month long tours on it & commuted to work everyday on it & had no probs, real nice bike. I would steer away from anything with an aluminum frame personally if you plan on any big tours. Those Diamant's look bloody awful IMHO but would probably be fine if your not off anywhere too remote. Discs are great but probably overkill in most on road situations, a quality & well set up pair of Vs will stop a fully loaded tourer no problem. Go with the Dawes & you wont be disappointed.

I would love to still have these babies... :(

Lots of fun to be had on a fat bike without snow too...

^ nice.
Anyone know what the (carbon?) forks are?
White Bros, not sure what model though...

Just seen this on Salsa's blog. Post Apocalyptic bike advert?!

Love all the different Cross-Check setups, here mine, just freshly powder coated & swapped out the drops for a flat bar with bar-ends due to wrist trouble.
-
Love this Surly Cross Check, perfect for my weekly grocery shop...

Nitromors & rattle can laquer :)

Ordered Monday night, received Friday. Super happy, cheers Jim! -
Cheers! Yeah I really like the tight clearence on the rear, want to try and get a straight rake fork with tighter clearence.

Not a Fuji Track but my Fuji Feather...looks fair bit different now from the light blue OTP I purchased last year! -
God I used to love RC cars, had a Tamiya Hornet back in the day, always seem to spend more time fixing it or charging the batteries though!
-
Hey Archie, if you still have it by the end of September ill definitely have it off you (this months wages already blown)....stunning bike.
-
Oh & GA2G thanks for the pic of your 'Dale, helped convince me not to get one ;)
-
The Fuji Feather came today, really happy with it, wheels & seat are terrible though. Had to true the wheels up before I could ride it, the seams are welded waaaay out of line, but for £400 quid for the whole bike im happy! I've spent way more than that on just the wheels for my MTB so cant complain! Managed to pick up a sweet pair of rims & hubs of eBay so gonna build them up & it will be sorted. All in all a decent 'classic style' OTP.
-
Well that's interesting! Sorry GA2G, but I think your comments are a bit harsh, why the f**k would I be not genuine? What would I achieve!? I had a fixed steamroller 2 years ago and that's why I used the forum for advice, eventually got rid of it, so didn't use the forum until now when I was looking at getting another fixie. I didn't know there were secret rules or something, just wanted some advice, thanks to everyone for there advice, GA2G you must be smoking a lot or something your paranoid mate.
