    Lovely looking bike ElD!

    Just FYI- they're doing a recall on aerobars which might or might not apply to yours.

    Completely off topic, but if you can get these they are the complete business for keeping your beloved looking beautiful.

    New ride! I still have to get a fit, but the reach is much better on this Fuji D6 than my old bike. The chainrings are O-symetrics, very strange at first but I really liked 'em.

    Beautiful Bike Kurt. I was going to buy similar,(but went for something else) I just love the shape and design. Good luck with the O symetrics its something I haven't tried but believe it to be great after you get the hang of it.

    Best wishes on beautiful bike, looks a lot of bang for buck, and heck are they fast !!!

    Yes and no they have rebrand all there frames with avenger .. New website and spent quite a lot in marketing .. They have a team using there bikes etc..
    The frame has integrated front brakes into the fork.. Rear mounted brakes under the chain stay covered. No cable are showing anywhere on the frame .. Integrated stem .. Loads of really nice features .. And light and fast...

    Heres my old racer converted to tri (at a freezing winter duathlon near Naas a few years back). Hence the Bear Grylls mitts on the ground. Looks better without the aerobars if im honest.

    Meant to post this when I got it - bought last August and it has served me well over the winter and spring. Orbea Orca Silver. Apologies if file size is huge.

    Very nice!

    The Argon's are getting really popular lately and it's easy to see why.

    My bank manager is not happy with me right now:) I managed to get the very last P5 in B2R which was discounted down, guy came in 15mins after me to buy it, luckily Michelle suggested i put a deposit down 2 weeks ago.
    Size 54 (see i am not a hobbit:pac:)

    Much prefer this colour scheme to the boring red/white newer model.

    Lovely looking machine. They are much nicer than the new colour scheme :cool:

    Trying to sell the SRMs first before deciding. Whatever i go with it will be a crank based system. Sold a set of Zipp 404s separately to the P2. Will be going with a new disc & front next year.

    Yeah fitted on Saturday, setup very similar to my old P2 but less crunched up. That was a 51 and really a size too small. Position feels very comfortable but reckon i will take another spacer out the front over time.
