i’m getting used to it. even if the frame looks like a plasterers radio 🙂

You’ll probably break it next month so the replacement can be black.

heh heh 🙂

Looking good! You got the White rimmed sunnies to go with it?

Lovely bike, but why is it on the set from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? 😉

You are turning in to some sort of dandy or fop. Why I’ll warrant the next purchase will be a ruff-fronted riding shirt with lace collars and a pomaded wig to place atop your bonce. Your next riding shoes will be patent leather with large shiny buckles.

You will then find building shore to not offer enough challenges and begin an interior design consultancy in parallel to your dandyhorse courses.

My love of black bikes was ruined by a warranty replacement which came in Neon Red, more like pink. I had always bought black bikes on the principle that Mrs FOG just sees a black bicycle whatever the make or style and thus does not detect over budget purchases. I am struggling to replace my flock in pink but am working on it, pink 456 first buy.

matt black is the best bike colour bar none! looks new forever!

the old demo9 frame looks down on it in distain 🙂

sort out your moles

White rims?

You tart! 😉

the frame looks like a plasterers radio

Damn! You do like it.

There is two problems with that bike:

1) Fuller has had his hands on it.

2) I could not afford one.

Other than that. Very nice.

fuller tried riding it and couldn’t 🙂 🙂

I can imagine he might struggle.

Did you swap him for an Islabikes Bein 20?

no, i coached him 🙂

Isn’t “looks like a plasterer’s radio” some sort of euphemism? (or possibly a simile)

Was always a painters radio around here

At first i thought it looked very space aged in colour and with that an image of a young lady straddled it entered my mind, namely Barberella.
So i googled Barberella to check her out for suitability…………………………….

eww, white rims ! 🙁 (needs a *shakes head* icon)

second the ruffed shirts and plus fours above (wasn’t it you that started the bowler hat thread an’ all, jedi ??)

my new frame is black but has really big white lettering and “contrasting farty bits” on it – already looking for black helicopter tape

heh heh. bowler hat etc….. = tasty!

perhaps you have been drawn to the dark side !!!!!!!

nah, its the only colour bottlerocket they had in my size 🙂
