Ah, so you've found your own vintage carbon frame. Thought you wanted to go stealth with brushed lugs?

Yeah i did. I actually found a CFR Pro frame shortly before the Trek. CFR is now stripped (of paint) and I haven't touched it since; i like the trek too much Maybe the CFR will get some love at some stage.

Edit.. nevermind.. found it: http://www.beltdrivebike.com/rd1-0-3169.html So yours is an RD2.0 ?

Yep mine is the RD2.0.
I looked at the RD1 again at work bike locker, it was handy to have the same bike to check the clearance of its front sprocket and belt tracking before I use mine =D That bike is the only other geared hub around (in this building), as well as only belt around, so good fortune for me to compare to help sort mine out

My new Reacto 907



(sorry about the terrible photo )

Lovely looking bike Aaron. Love how they have colour matched the frame with the Fulcrums. Is this a 2013 or 2014? (wasn't the 2013 red ? I like this one better I think). So how much did that put you back? Still full ultegra I'm guessing or have they up'ed it? Cheers.

new group for the roadie

^very nice mate

Thanks Rodney!

It's actually the '12, they haven't released 2014 as far as I know.

$2,200ish at 99, plus an ultegra 11-28 for the rear (comes with 105 11-25).

Love that BMC weapon Jasey!

New 29er'

Nice. Wish they were still made by Tom though.

Would be nice if the 29er was a available without the slider dropouts like the 650b frame too.

Build quality is fantastic - so is the paint job; I was concerned that $900 was a lot for a steel 29er frame given the competition out there, but I am very happy with it.

Why would you prefer no sliding dropouts? They seem very sturdy.

Cheers

Just an aesthetics thing I guess.

Mmm, my fav gruppo.. Good stuff Jase.

cheers fellas, i actually switched back to the Fulcrum 1s

That BMC is the pants

found the frame in street trash..bit more to do but almost there. Been a learning curve but really fun. Too big for me at about a 58 frame so going to sell...anybody interested in details let me know by PM.

Looks good. Why do you say it's to big?

My frame size is 54 or 56 ..this is just tooo long. Could use a shortie stem, but that'd mean losing the beautiful ITM stem. Plus aesthetically I like more seat post showing on my ride.

Managed to score a great deal on this from a mate, built up with parts from a previous bike and that I had on hand, but I'm stoked with the outcome. First generation Gaulzetti Corsa.

^ Damn halfwheeler. Not sure why.

What does a frame and fork sell for? Checked out their site but couldn't find a price. Very unique, i like it a lot.
