MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Yes, that's right, I'm thinking of going a little niche! Am after a bike to commute on, a bike to hoon around the Park on after work and I reckon that I've narrowed it down to a niche-mungous ride...
Singlespeed Cyclo-cross.
So, is there anything out there apart from a Spesh Tricross Single? Not that I see anything wrong with that, as such, but want to check the options before a test ride!
SSCX is sooooo last years niche
the Felt Breed is particularly lovely

That's what the On-one Pompino is.
that felt seems like a lot of dosh for a lot of own-brand kit?
you'll look like a fixie rider 🙄
djglover, don't worry, I shall avoid wearing my sister's jeans while riding it....! 🙂
bet you won't be able to resist a bit of Assos or Rapha though eh?!
Careful Flashy, it's one step closer to that dark, slippery slope....
MFH!

I give myself 2 weeks to get my commuting bike fixed.
Just need to find a welding post 😀
You'll need a messenger bag to complete the look 😀
Wasn't the Fixie Inc. Pure Blood that was briefly reviewed in this months STW able to be run SS or geared? It is disc only though, which could be an issue...
Looks bloody gorgeous though..

And just how does one "hoon around" on a cyclo-cross bike?
freaks 😉
Nick, that Pure Blood is indeed a lovely thing. Perhaps too lovely! One thing that appeals about the Spesh is that it's nicely understated. Less likely to attract the attention of thieving scallies! (Drop bars help, of course)
And just how does one "hoon around" on a cyclo-cross bike?
Depends how you look at it. One man's hoon is another man's bumble.
the felt's just moved into 1st position for being my next bike 🙂

GNARGNAR, I suspect that Mr Kabush could leave you standing on pretty much any form of bike.
what is "hooning" exactly, do you need a special bike for it?

It is an unexploited niche, I feel. XC-Hoon-Lite-core
this is the one i use for my commute and its been great. had to get it shipped over from the states but still worked out cheaper than an equivalent over here.

and your point? What is it they say about assumption being the mother of all **** ups?
Rowley, now that I like....What model is it? Also, where from?
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!
Pickled onion, anyone?
San Jose. got it from RA cycles in new york. under £500 with shipping taxes etc.
CFH - how tall are you?
Just about to ebay this:

A little small for me, but thanks for that, ski!
Rowley, thanks, I'll have a look at that option.
Kona do a SS roadie/cx type thing, although it's more roadie setup out of the box it could probably do for CX.
Jeesz! Just how tall must that kid on the 36er be??
