I love riding this thing, but really miss the gears for the downhills.

06 Surly Pacer frame, Reynolds Ouzo fork, CK headset, 08 Centaur groupset, DT Swiss RR 1.2 rims on 28H DT 240 hubs. Thomson seatpost, Toupe saddle. 105 pedals.
This is my main training and racing bike now. In fact, I won the first crit I did on this setup
Nice one... watch out, I'm stalking you. Saw you and 2 mates having coffee at Manto on the Parade a couple of weeks ago. Some really interesting bikes the three of you had.
So what happened to the Teschner (looks a trifle too big for me anyway)?

Oh yeah - I remember seeing a couple of other cyclists there!rustychisel wrote:Nice one... watch out, I'm stalking you. Saw you and 2 mates having coffee at Manto on the Parade a couple of weeks ago. Some really interesting bikes the three of you had.

One of my mates was on his backup/trianing bike - a 90s Pinarello, it is a very cool ride (I like it better than his Giant that he races on).
Teschner frame will be getting sold at some stage. I have a similarly proportioned friend who may be interested, otherwise will go on fleabay. Its a ~62cm ST and ~61 cm TT if you know anyone who's interested...

I think the main thing with the Fiziks is that they are pretty narrow - fine if you have closely spaced sit bones but if not then... see toolonglegs's post!Rubicon wrote:really? I was asking around for new seats for my bike and most of the people on this 'other forum' all raved on about these fiziks.
Maybe theyre commission based

A Sweetpost for a sweet frame, Pegoretti could certainly label their frames "Craftsmen Built".

A different picture.
Cecil Walker 853 frame, Campagnolo Chorus components, Centaur compact crank, Deda head stem and bars, Deda CF seat post, Mavic Open pro rims, Columbus full CF fork, Selle Italia Flite titanium seat, Chris King Aheadset.
One of the many things I like about this bike is the traditional frame sizing, and the pearl white paint, and the quality components and the .........

Thanks.fitz wrote:Almost identical to my wifes Cecil save for the seat. Nice ride. All the silver stuff looks cool
Looking at the pics above I see that the Pegoretti is yours.
Not a brand I have heard of, but then I am always learning.
The tube joins look super cool, the Cecil's joins are a bit bulkier.
Nice bike, must be fairly light with the carbon bits?
What tubing does it have?
