And in a previous guise with Cotic steel forks and Tiagra chainset…

Some nice bikes on here. Anyone running one as a singlespeed? What is the gear ratio?

Can I run on with an “half” drop bar (like a horn bar)…? Do they have a real advantage over MTB?

Some lovely machines! The yeti’s ring my bell in particular 8)

For sale……. 😉

Another Jake the Snake here:

105 groupo & Aksium wheels.
Changes I’ve made from stock:

Pedals – changed to Crank Bros for mud shedding.
Stem – shorter (100mm) for nipping through switchbacks a bit easier.
Bars – Shape and drop preference.
Post – wanted a layback. Also matches stem & I’m a ponce.
Brakes – Kore cantis were seriously awful. Swapped for Avids
Saddle – one that doesn’t feel like a sofa.
Tyres – I’m something of a tyre swapper. My shed bulges with rubber.
Tape – double-wrapped ‘cos my hands are massive.
Carbon spacers added – see ‘ponce’ remark.

No. 1 son’s TCX

105 compact gruppo, Ritchey bits, Ksyrium hoops and Tektro canties.
Doing OK in the cx league so far, which is more than can be said for me!

Still not as pretty as your orange one though, Coleman.

Coleman, which model of TCX is that?

Thanks Sponging-Machine.

Brake-neck, tis a 2010 TCX frameset.

Cheers, nice looking bike.

Another Uncle John,love it!

Mine ready for the morning commute.

Nice bikes how much for a cross bike frame more or less. And does it really have some advantages from a MTB…?
Plus anyone using a horn bar…?

Here you go..

Not the best pic, but you get the idea..

36/46 & 12-25

Thinking of going 1 x 10…

Love it, great fun.

Just for will. Cheers.

Although not quite as sparkly now with 3 plus racing seasons under its belt!

🙂 Still one of the nicest looking cross bikes! Cheers 😆

I’ve got two of these, although I’ve changed the forks since this pic was taken –
