[Closed] For the first time ever

I'm totally happy with my new bike too! But it's not the first time and I'm sure it won't be the last time! 😉

Me too - unless new tyres count as upgrades but I'd say they're just optimisation... 😉

nope... 🙁 (never satisfied)

Can't see me swapping my Nicolai Helius for years to come 🙂 .

Nope:

Swift, still not sure whether to change to a large, and if a change is on the cards anyway should it be another Swift?

Pitch: Still faffing with the shock, I blame that partly on this being my first proper foray into FS after 10 years on HT's an it's taken me this long to get my head arround tuneing it and what adjustments actualy mean on the trail.

Chumba HX1: Still hasn't arrived, now expected on Thursday. I think I'm happy with the spec and bit's I've got, just needs work on the colour co-coordination which probably means new forks and wheels (or at least a swap with someone who's after a green/black theme).

Would like to change a few things on the Voltage to tone down its eyeball-searing colour scheme (function first for me) but the Commencal and the Cannondale and the Trek and the GT are all pretty much sorted.

The Cannondale especially is my go-to bike and it has a most excellent lived-in patina I would like to pass it on to my kids.

Me too.

So I bought another one yesterday 😳

Very happy with my new purchase, only change was to fit my girlie saddle.

So much so my other bikes have to go

Yup, for the first time my 5-6 year old bike is now purrfik, although it could do with a re-spray! I don't want/need to buy anything for it.

...So next year it's new bike time! 😉

Don't worry, there'll be a cool new colour to have next season 😀

That's a beaut Tracey. Is it the s-works?

I am not a tinkerer unless it is broken or at least 5 years old.

I dont undersatnd the elusive search for the perfect bike tbh.

Yes its the S Works, couldnt resist it with 36% off
