show me your new bikes!!

Dirty Harry by the way.

That does look nice Tom.. 8)

New to me… This should be ready for the 1st ride tomorrow.

Captain – is that a large or medium Dirty Harry? How tall are you & how do you like it?

My ‘new’ bike is very muddy, but will get a pic up later.

@KiwiJon – can you post some more hi-def pics please? Preferably some of it looking over its shoulder all doe eyed, with a finger on it’s lips. The filthy tart.
Luvly.
Thanks.

Almost there … only waiting on the slightly longer stem to arrive, then I can cut the steerer properly and tape the bars, and then that’s it (for now anyway).

Er…
It’s not that kind of bike.

Spoilsport!

Thanks Nick 😉

Dickie – it’s a large. 19inch frame. I’m bob-on 6ft, and it fits nicely with a shortish stem on.

Haven’t had a huge amount of time on it yet. Saturday was a bit of a write off thanks to sheet ice everywhere, but loving it so far. Light, comfortable, and holds speed nicely. It’s my first 29er and first carbon hardtail, so don’t have a huge amount to compare it to, but I’m happy so far. Will be doing a lot of miles on it this year. 24 hours of exposure, Cairngorms Loop, Glentress Seven, another 24hr solo and some bivvy adventures.

First new bike for ages, usually bought secondhand and swapped bits around, loving it so far…

Thanks for that, interested, & I’m 5’11” so thought 19″ might be my size too as I’d have 350mm of post out on a 16.5″.

some bivvy adventures.

Yup..

Sounds a plan…

Based on that, I’d go 19″ Dickie.

Nick, it goes without saying that they’ll be involving you!

Ringo – tell me about the singular 😉

Two rides old and i love it, everybody should own one 😀 was a bit apprehensive over whether or not id get on with the drops but i can honestly say its ace

1 month old and I’m loving it!

Unfinished yet, just started it tonight. Never had anything other than regular old MTB’s so this is a bit weirdy-beardy for me – intended as a commuter/winter bike (bit late for that). Looking forward to trying it.

Absolutely no idea whether I’ve got my Midge bars all setup correctly, I suspect they really need to be in a short stem. The hoods seem a very long way from the steerer!

Unfortunately due to slipping on the ice Friday and banging my hip and head I didn’t get chance to ride the “new” On One but I will this weekend I hope

Not strictly new but has just had a rebuild going from drops to H bars and some fresh rubber, so feels like new

for some reason i couldnt see my first post

That looks fun Ringo. What kind of speeds can you get on road sections? Seen too many CX bikes recently, really making me want one.
