stupra Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Tasty looking bike, (tasty price too !!), but I was hoping to see pic's of one with an engine . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a98pmalcolm Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 dura ace is good stuff. :-) i have the new dura ace promotional trade leaflet next to me in the bike shop i run. Its all really nice. Bike looks awsome mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewie Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 That's a cracking deal especially with Dura Ace. I built my bike up with a Giant TCR frame and 06 Ultegra groupset. Are you running triple or double chainset? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiceRocket Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Looks nice, I thought disc brakes were better than what's on the pic(V's?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Yep im a roadie. Although this time of year is no fun for getting the mileage up. I run a chris boardman frame which i rebuilt with ultegra groupset and easton wheels, although this time of year im on my heavy wheels and winter tyres That bike is going to be fun to ride in summer watch out though it looks like a bit of an arse kicker ! Is this for summer use only Rob or will you venture out during this cooler spell ? Are you going to get some other wheels to go with it ?
