[Closed] cx bike - how nice is this then

me likee ... specially the "red" stuff 🙂

White bartape on a cross bike! While it does look nice it's a carpark special I reckon 🙂

illegal for uci points races though, they don't allow cx with discs

All the Fixie Inc bikes are lovely - even better in the flesh than in pics.

How much are they, liked the road bike!

nice, I saw a fixie-inc road bike in brizzle the other day - [url= http://www.cycles-for-heroes.com/bikes/road-race/betty-leeds ]lovely looking thing[/url].

My LBS does Fixie inc stuff. Very nice. 😛

They are expensive! Mosquito Bikes do them, and they only look reasonably priced in that context because they also sell Indy Fab and Pegoretti!

a friend knows one of the guys who set it up.....

when they were starting out they didn't have a stand at the Eurobike so took along two of their own with a few d-locks. locked the bikes in conspicuous places and threw a load of flyers around.

one of the guys is turkish. look at the wheels in the logo and tilt your head or the computer and you'll see two cresents and stars, like on the turkish flag.

lovely steel bikes. very flashy.

i love that place - it's where i got my merlin 🙂

might pop down for a drool today!

Discs are daft and there doesn't look like a huge amount of mud clearance (maybe the photo). Nice paintjob but certainly cannot say I want one at all.

Is Dobbin still there? If so can you tell him to get off his lazy ass and answer his emails! 😉

i'll pass it on if i do!

Ooer! Retro, 4130 steel, convertible dropouts etc. Niche bike for cafe racers I fear. 🙂

Discs spoil it, IMO. Which is a shame, as the rest is very nice indeed. Far too nice to race cross on really.

I looked at getting one a while back, disc-only put me off. Very nice to look at though.

ohhh looks lurvely.

bah I like having discs on my cx. ok they don;t look as nice, but riding with a mate who didn't have 'em and he had to ride slower downhills as he couldn't slow down proper.

don't care aboot racing and my rims won't die.

Nice, too nice.
The man that rides that wouldn't be happy washing himself down after a race in a tin tub fed with a hosepipe.

personally i think discs look better, sounds like it's just me!
