    So excited to have got my new bike. A bit of a frankenbike so I could actually afford it, the (Giant) Liv Advanced Pro 0 frame with 105 and Team Vision 30 Wheels. Think some deep section wheels would look mighty fine on it :D:D:D .

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,488 ✭✭✭manafana

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,704 ✭✭✭AstraMonti


    Sadly not mine, but Cannondale has jumped on the top of my wanted frames list.

    Just finished building this up on Friday and took it for its first spin today. Frame is a Bianchi 4X Reparto Corse dating from 1992. Most of the components however are 2015 Veloce, with the notable exception is the 1st generation 10-speed Record crankset from 2000. I've always believed this is the prettiest they've ever made. Stem and bars are Cinelli. Saddle is a San Marco Concor Supercorsa. Wheels were custom made for me by August Wheelworks with Ambrosio rims and hubs. Gum wall tyres are Veloflex Master.

    Saw this beauty in our company's bike park this morning. Looks stunning in the flesh, my picture taking skills do it no justice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,604 ✭✭✭petethedrummer


    I like its straight and mainly round tubes, the position of the brakes, it's horizontal top tube and the seat post/top tube junction.
