You need to buy the sensors seperatly though. 😐

Ti 456 😆

Cos when i point it down something REALLY stupid…You`ve got a chance of still being alive at the bottom…. 😀

Yes…sometimes it goes a bit wrong and you have and off…and sometimes only be the grace of GOD you make it….

But when you NAIL something proper stupid and are still in 1 piece at the bttom…It does feel GOOD………..REALYY GOOD 😛

karnali,I dont see why not! Im assuming all sram/shimano mechs will work the same and are compatible
Dobo, It worked with the set up i had as in the pic…Im afraid i didnt get the chance to try it “on the road” but i recon it will be fine as the shift was quite accurate even with my hand moving around….. In this instance it was OK!. It would seem that Campag shifters will work as years ago i was running campag 8 speed on Dura Ace hubs and cassette and it worked fine.

LMK how you get on!!!

So, the results!!!! It works!!!!! 😛 (i`d say 80% with what i had)

This does seem to work quite well considering i was holding the shifter in 1 hand and then pushing the lever click, pedal, click, pedal etc….Bearing in mind that the cable was`nt fastened ridgid and had potential to move slightly as my hand moved….. I said 80%….This means that it was down to the final 1/4 turn on the adjusters…however as nothing was “fixed” in a permanent position then that is the best i could get.
The gears did shift well and only had very minor chain rattle (as if trying to change up/down). I`m sure this would be sorted with permanent fixing to the bars and frame…..

So, thus concludes my test…And it will work IMHO !!!! 😉

And thanks to Taxi25 for the loan of the shifters, I`ll be in touch to sort out the rest…

Thanks…..

Guaranteed to happen when Gav`s camera is out….. 😉

a bit wet now…

😛

That downhill one is outstanding….. 😯

Dio rodeies count :wink:, for the umpteenth timr this week….my new Shrek Trek…..

Green white n pink….. 😛

Sit`s down and waits for the abuse ❗

This has had more likes than dislikes…. 8)

It was the smell of singed flesh 😯 even the local injection was`nt bad….

The next day i ran the “dads" race at one of my boys sports day. Cath said "you cant do that” as i walked to the start line….I said “If i can walk then i can run”… 🙄

Only mild discomfort for me and roughly a week to be back on the bike…..

Any excuse Pooley 😛

Just priced up my Green-n-White 40th prezzy… €4040… ouch!

Go for it!!!! Mine was £4535 at the shop, 15% discount made £3865ish, sold the stock wheels in an hour and had the deep carbons built up…
Probably pushed it over the 5k mark 😯

Beej, it does look nice in real life 😛

Mine is a ’99’ Trek 7000 in Metallic Green…known as “Shrek”,

Funny you should mention that.I`ve named this new build “Shrek” 😛 (any excuse to put it on here!!!) 😉

I bet it`s way faster than my HT as well 😉

Now running the Pinkslip cassette….

😐

Will Do.

Recieved / replied….Cheers.

Recon i`ll stick with the compact…Gone have the days of pounding up 1/4 hills like Honister on the old 42/21….. 😥

You only get 1 set of knees! 😉

Edit After watching Lance for all them years i changed the way i peddaled…”Pedal not Push”

Pink is such a cool colour 😛

No reason why not as once upon a time i was using Campag 8 speed shifters with Dura Ace hub and cassette…

Nice 1 andy

Hi there Lowey….you`ll see me coming a mile of……Literally 😆

Cheers dobo,

Thats not a bad idea actually as i can remove the mech and cassette from the tt bike for now as the season hasnt started yet…

Can you send your e-mail or something?

I`ll be in touch mate…

Pooley….,

The bars are standard Bonty as is the stem….I might change them for a nice Thomson X2 and carbon bars. 🙄

The wheel rims are actually the same rims as one of the Campag sets (Bora) i think, tubular and i had them built by Derek at Wheelsmith, they are really light as well.
you can check out the Projekt website for their builds…

I havent actually rode it in anger yet so i havent committed to the steerer length

Weight 15lbs 😛

Andyrocketeer….I`d go for the Green n White …. 😉

Nowt wrong with compacts certaily where i live as we`re surrounded by steep hills……. 😛

I agrre with the rear cable but i didnt build it...Not this time as it was done at the LBS as part of the deal.....Its the only bike i`ve never built 😉

Finally finished and ready to go….. 😛

😆

All my pink bits…….

And a homoglation of a Jelly Baby and a Jelly Snake….. 🙄

😆

Something like these njee20 ❓

😉

Nice Schwinn there cozz…..Looks good with the black n white… 😛

You can`t beat colour co-ordination 😆

The pink n green thing has more likes than disslikes it would seem, just wait till the wheels are on with CK pink hubs as well….. 😯

There`s nowt wrong with that mate 😛

Sex 😆

It is indeed Oldgit….. The tt bike is something i`ve wanted for 10 years… 😯

The Trek Project 1 is kinda my 40th b.bay prezzy….. 🙄

I also ride a Ti456 with nice kit on….

And a VERY VERY VERY tolarant wife 😉

I think that`s a liile unfair ttsugars…. Bol is oviously a tall fella and so needs a large “gate” to fit…..

Bol, my tucked position is also knees up in the chest, flat back etc. If its comfy then thats all good IMO.

BTW this is my new ride….No full pics till the weekend as i have`nt got the tubs on the wheels sorted yet 🙄

Now that`s what i call A#*e up and head down….. 😯

Even more so than this of mine

Nice bike and it should ride very very well. I `ve had a Lynsky before and now have a Ti456 (Lynsky) so i know what they are like…

Enjoy it mate 😛

Aspire Velotech…..I buy allmy King stuff there.

Cleared 95% of said river path to Watendlath on the same day i mentioned earlier. There are 3 bit`s that are very hard….A tree near the start that is very hard to get round, a rocky click with a steam running through it (got to the steam) and the steps….Cleared the rest……
This was after coming over Walla as well…

Prepare to get v vet n dirty 😉

Your`re right PT….i did snap my chain on another attempt 😐 Missed the nads on the top tube as well. 😯

Much to your amusement i seem to remember……. 😆

🙄

I cleared Skiddaw twice last year, 1 of those i was being watched by a couple of young honnies….Parktiger mentioed earlier 🙄

Allmost cleared Watendlath a couple of weeks ago in the wet bar a a couple of dabs….

Also cleared the Grzedale right hand ridge (until the carry at the top)

Thanks for your comments Ton….don`t forget that i was ss at the time 😉
