    I'm more a fan of modern carbon than vintage bikes but this .....

    Super nice. Brake cables seem a bit long though.

    I'd like to see one called Keith. :pac:

    From the company that Raam posted recently. I contacted them to see how much a frame and fork would cost.
    The price for a frame made to measure for you along the lines of the ones pictured above and using similar quality tube sets paired with an ENVE fork and your own unique paint design would be around £3200 there might be an increase or decrease in price based on the options you go for and the simplicity or complexity of the paint work we end up going for. The wait time is around 20 weeks at the moment

    This one fully built was 8000 sterling. Gorgeous though.

    That bike is not worth a cent over £7,850

    Delivery and insurance ;)

    And one of those fancy things to hang it from the wall.

    Meaty tubes! If it rides like it looks, I'd give a kidney for one.

    [edit]

    Mein Gott, everything is perfect in this bike. Even cranks matching rims matching seatpost and the touch of colour.... my best favourite from this tread for a long time.

    I'd agree, but at the same time I find it a little dull. The logo matching the shifters and RD colour band is a nice touch though

    I'm starting to like it. It's cleaner.

    But presumably means the chainring bolts more likely to creak.

    I'm sticking with "five arms good, ten better".

    Presumably or actually? They will bring em back in a few years citing increased stiffness or something.

    New bike smell!

    Dawes 20 Inch L'il Duchess. Baskets and bells and five arm cranks FTW.

    I can see why you don't bother with the Garmin anymore....

    Are you racing that next season?

    They are nice, but you would want to be very confident in your saddle position to take one. Absolutely no adjustment available.
