Nice...The 2nd Womble wrote:I've had this offered to me today after having to sell my bikes to cover stuff up's of SCA jersey orders from our previous supplier. It's a 95% done deal, and If it comes home this weekend I will take the obligatory white garage door and blue/green washing basket pics. Just needs a new saddle.
Fingers crossed its yours! Love the Merida frames

Lovely! Remind me to get my washing basket and photograph it along with the bike. Mine now has a Fizik Arione saddle and some black bar tape.The 2nd Womble wrote:I've had this offered to me today after having to sell my bikes to cover stuff up's of SCA jersey orders from our previous supplier.

Needs A saddle. Appears to have a plank of carbon fibre on top of it now?

Luckily the Reacto's aren't ISP. If you look at the black block just above the cable it's actually a collar. The post is integrated but still adjustable like a traditional frame and seatpost. Two bolts either side of the seat tube at the rear allow for adjustment. It's a great design imo I'll need a longer stem though I thinkfamilyguy wrote:If the ISP fits you, score.

1986 Dawes Shadow. I recently found out it's actually Reynolds 500, not 531, but i had the stickers lying around so thought what the hell. Absolutely love this bike, really smooth, handles well and goes like stink.
And yea i know i need to trim that brake cable outer but the ziptie will do for now . Oh and a laundry basket.

No dog here,so i figured it takes 2x cats to make up for one... in my household, the tabby owns the basket and is never going to leave without a fight, while the white fella just rocked up and plonked his ass down in the shot.. you can't 'pose' cats you just have to let them do whatever the hell they want..Howzat wrote:

Just sold the 50mm as they were tubulars. Roads around where I live now aren't particularly good and chances of punctures are very high unfortunately...TMjpn wrote:Very Nice! It'll look good once you pop those deep0 dish wheels on itskcycle wrote:Just converted....

My Trek Madone 4.5 after putting on some Fizik black bar tape and the Fizik Arione VS saddle which is extremely good. That bike is loads of fun and really flies.

Oh thanks for that I need to change the red top spacers to some black ones at some stage. They stand out like nothing else hahaTMjpn wrote:This is a clean, nice looking bike!adrian_d wrote: Prolite Cuneo running Shimano 600 Tricolor Running gear and Como Wheelset

I believe you can get them quite cheap these days, around the $360-$400 mark for the frame and around $150-$170 for the forks? I can't wait to ride it.

Interesting to see how different you have the drops lined up on these bikes....... and wondering if your hands are going to fatigue with the angle of the drops on the Cuneo. Not a crit, just an observation.adrian_d wrote:Been meaning to post these up:

I like the red spacers above the stem, sets the bike off just that little bit........

Thanks for the heads up mate. To be honest I know nothing about the angles on the drops haha. It is one part of the bike setup that I have not yet figured out.
