Bike Porn

I never got to post a pic of my bike as its crap so I never bothered.
The old bike porn post seems to have died so here is the new thread for those who havenn't posted.

Here's my new steed... Conehead I know you recommended a TT but I went for a really good road rather than a crap TT. There always next year for a TT mind!!!!

The groupset and wheels will be different, went for the good frame with the view to upgrading.....

picking her up in two weeks courtesy of Bridgetown Cycles...... Can't speak highly enough of them. Well done to Mike.

    Just bought my new bike and broke the bank , delivery in about 4 weeks time as I need a few adjustments ....
  • [toPh][toPh] Posts: 244
    That looks nice! What are you getting it bulit up with?
  • just2trijust2tri Posts: 198
    Took the advice from the forum and will go for Sram Rival, Bontrager X-Lite seatpost, Race Lite handlebars, Race Lite stem, Bontrager Race saddle, Shimano RS 10 wheels, Race X Lite Hardcase tyres.

    Would never have thought that I am going to spend so much money on a bike .... still have to confess to the WAT office.
  • gingertrigingertri Posts: 277
    if the WAT says you can't have it, i'll happily help out
  • Bugger - cocked up the image thing........ ( edited)

    Mike at Bridgetown has just built this Massi Carbon beast for me.

    I pick it up on Tuesday - how excited am I.

    When I work out how to post a pic I'll bung one up.
  • just2trijust2tri Posts: 198
    Yep, Mike sorted me as well ....
  • ZacniciZacnici Posts: 1,385
    Let me guess - it isn't Blackpool is it?

    Good luck

    Cheers Zac,

    Def want some personal touch to the bike.
  • Here is my bike... hope this works
  • shadowone1shadowone1 Posts: 1,408
    Ben.

    Wicked bike... have you named him/her?????

    So cool.......
  • She is called Bertha.
  • Mate - what Tri bars do you have on your beast ?
  • ZacniciZacnici Posts: 1,385
    Willeverfinish - Bertha - sound name - reliable, keeps you out of trouble in a fix, knows how to dish it out!
  • Dependable, hard as nails in a ruck, mysterious and a bit naughty when she wants to be..... and the name of my beloved Golf R32 I had to sell when the kids came along to make way for a bloody people carrier.

    I like to think the car and the bike have very similar attributes hence the same name.
  • Planet X SL Carbon with Campag Zonda wheels and Campag Veloce Ultra Torque.
    Built it myself, I did!
  • ZacniciZacnici Posts: 1,385
    Ah - I see you've gone for the understated look!

    No dfficulty in finding your bike on the rack
