    good grief, does no-one in your work place own anything that needs to be in/under their desks?

    Had mine a little over a month now and love it 🙂 I know other people say there are better bikes. This my first road bike since I was a kid, so to me its a rocket ship 🙂

    Doing my first 100mile Sportive on Sunday, looking forward to it 🙂

    Hope you don’t get a puncture on your first ride – you’ll ruin that lovely white bar tape

    Damn that’s a clean desk

    I’ve got one and hardly ride it at all, for some reason it seems to be the most uncomfortable bike I’ve ever owned 🙁 After about 45 mins my hands go numb, then my neck starts aching and finally my back starts aching. Can’t manage more than about 90 mins before I have to stop. It must be something about the riding position but I can’t work out what. It’s the correct size frame for my height and I’ve played around raising the bars and moving the saddle forward but to no avail…. Which is a shame as they seem to be excellent value for money.

    Disposable latex gloves will keep your hands clean when fixing mechanicals…

    Please don’t wear latex gloves when carrying out roadside repairs.

    I got a 2nd hand one last week. Looks similar to that one except mine has fulcrum wheels and red tires. I got an XL cos Im 6ft2. The tope tube/stem felt really long so Ive put a 90mm stem on it and it feels perfect.

    I like it alot

    I’m 6ft1 and got a large with a 100cm stem.

    What’s wrong with latex gloves? Seem to recall a long thread on here about what people carry when riding their road bikes and they were a popular option?

    Mines is exactly the same, exceptions being black stem and tyres. Couldn’t live with the white sidewalls. Had a first ride on it last night, low weight is immediately apparent, more comfortable position than my Cannondale R600 and about 3.5lbs lighter.

    Latex (blue nitrile actually) are excellent, but remind me of work
