    and she says, ‘it looks the same to me’.

    This was it before….

    I mean I didn’t expect her to say, ‘oh I see you’ve got a new stem & bars’ but bloody hell!

    It’s been away for some work & I just got it built up again today

    It does look the same to me as well…colour isn’t really something I notice either…shape is the same so it is the same…or have you been crafty and got a whole new bike?

    So now you know it doesn’t matter what you do she wont be able to tell and you can upgrade when ever you want.

    She’s allowed to have an opinion?

    You can buy any new bike you fancy and chances are she’ll never notice 🙂

    I can’t think of anything witty to say, but that’s a cracking view! Proper jealous. I wish my pointing was like that.

    Did she notice that someone had built a garage and blocked your amazing view?

    The title of the thread had huge potential.

    Bit of a let down really 🙁

    I’ve got it. …. You’ve taken the bottle cage off. Did you opt for a camelback and become a proper MTBer? 😆

    Oxalic acid will clean that bench up a treat.

    I’m surprised she never said ‘The bench needs a coat of teak oil, before you go out on yer bike’

    Some brilliant comments there!
    It has been black before actually but about 5 years ago. This is the Mk 9 version of my ‘Triggers Brush’ bike & the only original tubes are the right side seat & chainstays.
    I already knew I could buy WTF I wanted & she’d never notice, bit like me & her shoes.
    Yes, the view from the shore of Loch Shiel is miles better than the side of my garage. 🙁
