Im in a "bling mood" probably due to no riding over this weekend and too much web surfing at crc.

Carbon, anodising, coloured cables, wheels.

Another pic thread wont harm the servers too much 😉

I've spent most the day looking for nice wheels

That's all well and good but it's mounted on a fake IF much like sofaking's fake IF's.

singlespeed stu

you'll notice I made no claims for bling for the common as muck frame that my nice shiny bits are attached to 😀

I'm going to re-spray the frame with tesco value colors and stickers It'll be more honest and I can colour co-ordinate with the blue, hmmmmmmm

Taz.

You seem to missunderstand what i was saying.

Look closer at wokboys bikes and you'll see they're all fakes.

Even the rider's a fake. 😉

Just been out the twice on them d.t.

Wasn't too sure when I first went out on them, not sure what I was expecting to be honest and I need all the help I can get on climbs (I got them and the cranks for a VERY good price so I couldn't really say no to trying them).

Went out for the second time last Sunday and I'm certain I could notice a difference when climbing............ 😯 (after 50 miles in a howling gale)............... I seemed to be accelerating up one of my local drags, that normally I twiddle up, without really trying, not sure where the speed came from.

It was expensive yes, very expensive. But I like it, and it makes me want to get out and thrash the t1ts off it every chance I can.

Lardlover.
I found that pedal stroke seems very smooth with the Q's, more even power & sprint power seems to have a more constant power (even with my legs) certainly better on the hills too.
I quite like the parlee & you got some lovely bits on it too!! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!!
