Gorgeous BMC.. did you build that yourself? i'm sure most of us have bikes that we don't ride within 50% of its capabilities... but the bikes use 100% of ours!

Intended for fixie use (with front brake) and track use (without brake), now I have to actually buy the rest of the parts to put it together :P
Subtle with the basket usage ;)

No mate, bought as is. Is the perfect build for me, may as well have been a custom job. Owning it is inspiring me to push to the max 8)

Its ok mate i've got your basketry needs below haha

Those wheels are awesome mate i'm very jealous of those deep dish wheels. What brand are they?

My new Comos arrived today. I could only fit one as my headset isn't assembled yet.

I am so impressed with the service from prolite-oz.com, Deon was very helpful and the shipping was super quick.

Looks like a lovely big blue laundry basket on the right? The bike in front is quite attractive too :D

That's the best looking bike I've seen on these pages!! Love the rims blending into the tyres and nice clean lines. Again, love the matt frame!!

I'm a huge fan of Pro-lite. I've got a set of Gavia 50mm tubulars and they are REALLY fast.

I'm in the process of converting my Felt B12 into a road bike - the ground has been broken on the money pit - just bought a dura ace groupset....

Oh that's awesome. I have been particularly keen on the prolite brand after seeing the cuneo frame. I am quite amazed how light it is for an alloy frame. I have a set of prolite drop bars and seat post in mind. My only concern was if i had to repair a puncture while riding with tubulars. I am trying to find a set in clinchers one day.

If rabobank89 stays true to form it will be up for sale soon, so you might be able to try it yourself!

Sorry rabo, just having a dig, no malice intended :wink: :D

My new Merida Reacto 909E bought from Tailwind Cycles here in Adelaide. Compact crank fitted because I am soft.

Now just waiting for the weather to improve so I don't get it wet. :roll:
