What is it?

Everything comes to he who waits… but it’d come a month earlier if his colleagues were nicer 😉

Quick ,get an entry in for a race 😛

Yeah a race, what better way to christen a new bike. How about an enduro, they’re good value 😀

hing is, i am not due back at work till 1st october so it will be a while before i ride it.

not even tempted to pop in – i would be.

Yes

but… I am at work…

Bit more fettling to do, pedals, set up fork and shock, remove a bit of the 300PSI from the tyres… 😀

…adjust rear mech?

Greatape, yes I couldn’t get that on last night armed only with scissors. It has now been affixed. Also swapped the brakes for my XT’s, putting them on the correct sides in doing so. 🙂

Bike building with scissors – like your style 🙂

Is that Tons new bike Satzer?

No, IT IS MINE, ALL MINE!! 😀 Misleading putting it on here and hijacking the thread I guess. I bet Ton’s bike will be more gnarlier and expensiver than mine! 😀

Greatape, it was in work…. I used what was available, but found no use for the toilet roll, biros and sellotape. Yet.

I thought that was nice of you to build it up, with scissors, for him and give it a test ride.

Enjoy the ride.

Surely a biro is around a 5 or 6mm hex?

Pfft….amateur!

Surely there’s a multitude of spannering usages for a stapiliser.

nope…… 😆

Don’t you want to check no one is fettling your new bike with office equipment?

You haven’t met ton have you..

Nope….. 😀

What ever it is it will be great for you to be out on it. No new bikes here, just loads of repairs and a few upgrades for me.

Hmm, I’ll have a tenner on a Surly of some sort.

ECR?

I’ll punt a £5’er on a FatBike 😆

Pretty sure this was revealed in another thread yesterday.

Clue? By Brant 😉

There is another thread floating about where a cunning and clever stw’er uses his finely honed spidey senses and correctly identifies tons new bike 😉

Get my new bike in about 90mins.

Ah.

Looks nice though.
🙂

good to see you’re on the mend ton

Even better when the new bike turns out to ride even better than the supposedly better bike it is replacing! 8)
