thanks. I got it from hollywoodhoppy, he was selling it recently - new it's about 1200 sterling.
I weighed it sans saddlebag and it's 8.2kg.
I like it, but I've only been on it twice so far

All the trusty steeds (bar one) in one go. It's hard to see where one ends and another begins

There are 6 there, but only 3 of them are mine.

That bullit is a tasty rig - nice one

Alkers · 07-11-2008 01:53AM

The stem took a bit of getting used to alright, was very twitchy when I started using it. Weird thing is I think the bike was used off road before I got hands on it, can't imagine that was pleasant with a stem that long.
Bullit is great fun alright, it's damn heavy though and the geometry is all wrong for climbing. Worth it coming back down though.:D Most annoying thing with it though is no bottle cage, if I'm nightriding, I have to carry the battery for my lights on my person.

Savage. What's the cervelo lurking in the background?

Gavin · 15-11-2008 04:27PM

Nevermind the Cervelo, why does that rockhopper not get used!

Raam · 15-11-2008 08:49PM

The Cervelo is an R3. The Rockhopper belongs to the missus, but it seems to be getting retired right now.

So you went and bought the Palacio Real? How did you get mortgage approval for that?

It's a Bowery 2009, black chrome with orange bits. I just changed the brake, and added hot pink ourys and a charge saddle ...

My other bowery 2008 ( that was involved in an accitdent but is actually ok and derserves a second chance) is being painted blue ... I am not finished just yet though ...

Hey, how come you were in Madrid with your bike? And the fixie!? I have never been abroad with a fixie. I do hope the mudguard was not necessary.

It was pouring when I left home to the Airport ... the bike just wanted a holiday...

Hi
Im wondering if anyone could help me with info on this bike. Im guessing its from the early eighties although possibly older and was originally purchased in Ottowa. The groupset is mixed campagnolo/Shimano/Miche
I attached a picture of a Colnago Roger de Vlaeminck Paris-Roubaix and im thinking it might be a down the range version of that because of the similar stickers and what looks like a small Colnago sign on the left of the headtube.
There is a website for Roger de Vlaeminck bikes but its not much help.

Cheers for any help

Its also possibly looking for a new home if anyone is interested

We had bikes for casual travel... they didn't come with umbrellas or parasols and both were needed

steinone · 06-12-2008 09:44PM
