May not be a thing of beauty to some but I think it looks damn good with the race wheels on for race day tomorrow.

Thanks for bringing us back to earth after the celestial delight of the Heroin H1

Hope the race went well!

beautiful in it's simplicity.

Very pretty. Is that a through-axle?

Is that the new thing now with all the cool kids, is it?

But I picked up my new race machine during the week

Bar tape and saddle are criminal imo and you need tan wall tyres on it

But who am I to judge, it'd be a long time before I'd have change for one of them , enjoy!!!!!!!

EDIT: Actually is it the flash making them look white? when they are actually a grey/retrofelective colour ?

Yeah, it's reflective, so they actually look black until they have light on them.

Surprise birthday pressie for the mrs.

Needs a bit of colour but actually has a lot of light and a shade between the matt, gloss and grey.

Lovely bike though, and still properly light for an aero.

Presented to her last night. And it WAS a surprise. - Her birthday isn't until May!!!!

I couldn't very well hide it for three months. I've been fit to burst, myself, the last 3 weeks between ordering and tracking it. :rolleyes:

^^^ lovely bike fatbloke. Wouldn’t change anything about it.

looking at similar myself, did you get her an ideal saddle?

No, i just bought the package as is. I'd been keeping an eye on the sales and this came up on the outlet store, one left, her size. There wasn't an option to change anything on it. -She can be modifying it away now to her heart's content, my job of work is done!

I was thinking a ladies saddle with a bit of colour on it would be nice and then maybe colour match the bar tape.

My new build, Condor Leggerro with Ultegra Di2 R8050 Groupset.

Of course, it would blow a gale after finishing!!

Have a Cyrano R1 stem that will replace the current one as soon as I get a bit of fitness back :-)

Just put this back together out of the bike box so still have Gran Canaria friendly climbing gears on it, but it’s looking well.

As per magicbastarder‘s request. Sorry about the poor photos.

My new gravel bike. Ragley Trig v1.0 Adventure.

magicbastarder · 19-03-2019 05:54PM

Alek · 19-03-2019 09:50PM

Just buy some spare clothes to carry with you, far better solution

Jez you were right when you said the stock photos didn't do it justice.

Whats that you've got on the chainstay there, some kind of cover??

Kevlar chainstay protector. Came on the bike but I don’t know if I’ll keep it on for commuting. https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/mobile/ie/en/ragley-kevlar-chainstay-protector/rp-prod122086
