That's a mighty big dose of the ghey you've caught there.
(I like that- one of my favourite road frames. If it had some proper gears on it I'd want it)

Nice! Bit OTT for my needs, but if i was fit enough..actually i'd probably buy something Italian. Still, damn nice bike :-).

Good God that is stunning! I have just got hold of an Intense Fenix frame, so building that up. Won't be as nice as that though.

have you got the matching lycra pyjamas ?
Posted 1 year ago # -
It's lovely, but I'd rather that my frame and wheels matched
Posted 1 year ago # -
That is **** beautiful.

Put yer willy away.

Very nice, I wanted one of those, but the bank said no
Shame about the silly gears though...Posted 1 year ago # -
Shame about the silly gears though...
Sram red, there quite good although not as smooth as my dura-ace on the other bike. Its got a kinda mechanical feel to it. silly 11-23 cassette on the back, would of preferred an 11-25 but hey ho
Posted 1 year ago # -
wow.....superb looking ....got me very jealous.
Posted 1 year ago # -
I know it's Sram Red, I'm just not a fan, sorry.
If it had Dura Ace then yes-Spot on (IMHO only of course)
It's still FAR better than mine Posted 1 year ago # -
That's very nice
Shame about the pointing though
c'mon there's no lawn or fence to comment on

Raddogair, can it be true, do real men occasionally use bigger than a 23? I've almost weaned myself off the 27, don't think 23 would cut it quite yet though, the Kenmore road still exists, and I haven't even tried the Lecht.
Damn nice bike though, another few years and I might almost be able to justify one.

Hmm, it is a touch too subtle for me.
Posted 1 year ago # -
sweet!
I'm ordering a Canyon Ultimate SF 9.0 next month, an't wait to get my hands on it!
Posted 1 year ago # -

Occasionally while i'm waiting for the peleton to catch up on a climb i stick it in a 25 to make them feel good about themselves
Posted 1 year ago # -
I've started drooling involuntarily.
Is it too early for me to upgrade my 3-week old Focus?
Would it make me quick too?

P.s., if the wife can get me a new set of wheels you can have her for as long as you want

dont apologise dude, i can see why people wouldn't get on with them. Nice to look at, very light but the gear system is deffo a marmite one. Would prob of preferred dura-ace TBH myself but i'm slowly getting the hang of them
Would it make me quick too?
Think its an unwritten rule that a new bike officially makes you go faster than you've ever went before. Your a whippet anyway so not much improvement to be made
Posted 1 year ago # -
That is very nice!
I am in the middle of spec'ing a new road bike for myself. Nothing quite as nice as that I'm afraid but a Ribble Sportive Racing but (Sorry for the wee hijack here but it looks like you know what you're on about
) what say the STW roadies? Should I go for the
- Shimano Ultegra 6700 10 Spd Double @ £1199.99
or- Campagnolo 2010 Centaur UT Carbon 10 Spd @ £1186.02
Or alternatively you could sell me your Felt radoggair for something in between those figures
Any help would be appreciated from anyone slightly more 'in the know' than me.
Cheers
Paul
