No. Save some more, that bike will look amazing with some aero carbon rims.

A Friend took a picture of me, was setting up the cameras.

Great photo. That bike looks amazing in black and white.

but bugger it we live in a multicultural society and they can all assimilate

Sheesh, not many L or XL bikes in the last few pages! Its not that they're not nice. Might have to start a "how tall are you" poll to establish the median height of BNA members

Been meaning to get my ride up here for a while. I can't wait to replace this with a Lynskey soon. It won't me too long to get a pic of the proposed new purchase when it arrives in the new year. This bike has served me well notching up over 7000km in 15 mths of owning it.

Well I finally finished this apollo CF road bike.

Its mine for a few days untill I send it up to Darwin.

I hope those pedals come off!!

Stopped to take a snap of my new ride on the commute home today. My entry into the world of 29ers, an Apollo Xpert290

i know it isn't completely rulle 26 compliant.... but it sure looks pretty....

I think I can see a garage door way in the distance on the left, you should have used that.
