That’s a lovely looking “utility” bike.
Gorgeous bike
Dead 'fern' leaves visible through main triangle. Poor positioning 😉
Oh, lurvly looking bicycle, however 😁
I've got a 14yo that would relieve you of some pocket money for that lawn & bushes. 😉
I like that bike, very much a potter/audax without pretentious of being anything else, nice buy.
I've always felt sorry for Will, but he's a survivor!
Wow. Look at all those gears! 😉
Lovely classic colour scheme on it too.
Looks ace, Ton. Got big plans for it?
I've got a sort of new audax bike too. Or at least a new arrangement of bike parts, which is a new experience. 1987 frame. commuting rack and longboard mudguards off, new (shorter) cranks, bar tape and levers, shifter, cassette and derailleur nicked off the cross bike, wheels nicked off the wife's neglected roadie. same tyres, same everything else. Feels bloody lovely!
old fashioned 3 x 9.
Looks a cracking bike, very practical
Classy looking bike. 👌
Looks ideal 👌
Nice bike apart from the funny bars! 🙂
Triple on a road bike makes so much sense, close(ish) ratios but can get up hills without dying.
Nice bike.
Nice.
Spa do make lovely 'bikes that look like bikes', don't they?
Looks ace, Ton. Got big plans for it?
i am going to start riding more audax rides. managed a 300km a long time ago, so would love to build up to a SR next year.
and some tours too.
That looks ace!
That's a tall bike for sure, the scaffolders want their head tube back 🤣
Jokes aside, it's refreshing to see a bike built to fit, rather than built for fashion 👍
God damn it, can we start adding (not mountain bike) in the title to avoid disappointment.
Lovely stuff big lad. Enjoy
Lovely bike, the colour is the dogs b#######. Love the disc brakes which will be great on wet descents fully loaded. Not sure about the bar end shifters or the triple but each to their own. I’m sure you will eat up the miles on her, happy riding 👍🏽
Props for the proper bike.
