    But it's not carbon, it must be crap....

    2014 CAAD10 looks like a good one...http://www.westbrookcycles.co.uk/frames-c6/road-frames-c112/cannondale-caad-10-frameset-black-2014-p232925

    I'd absolutely love a Caad10, but I've no space for a third bike at the moment.

    Can we split this in to a daft concept bike thread and an images of beauty thread. Beauty is not subjective. Beauty in bicycle terms can be objectively measure by how close a bike resembles an 80's TT bike.

    That is quite ugly. Disk brakes make any bike ugly, but that was no looker to begin with.

    It was originally meant to be for people to post pics of their own bikes.

    From the first post...
    Seeing as the after hours lads have been drooling over their own concepts of beauty thought occured that the cyclists could post images of their equipment. And of their dream bikes etc. happy viewing.

    Not generally a fan of TT bikes, but this is a beauty:

    ah! I see.

    A concept bike thread would be good though. So I know where to not go everyday.

    I really should have re-read the opening post before I said that.

    Right so everything is acceptable under this condition "And of their dream bikes etc." *Shakes fist*.

    There should never be an "etc.", too vague.

    If I was less scrupulous I could have just quietly edited the OP.

    Picked her up on Saturday, first drop bar in many a year and first proper run this morning but waaheey! I love it! Got the proper shoes too and boy it makes a difference being clipped in, still haven't mastered it but it feels good. Had a set of SKS Raceblades fitted which I had to adjust to stop them rubbing off the front wheel but seems ok now. Thanks for the pre purchase advice.
    All in all a happy man...

    That Cube is a really nice looking pedal pusher you got there. I'd love it.

    @Jabel: If I were you, I would put some electrical tape under the raceblade fixings so that they don't damage your paint work.
