Seen it in the flesh!!! Looks really good, but need its headset tightening!

Moose, Don't forget to weigh yourself before and after ablutions, but more importantly I know you've just come off a long two weeks of nightshifts but get that bloody lawn cut sharpish, cause you can hardly see your new tread iron of yours in that picture. LOL

A nice bike mate, well bought.

Looks great Moose ! ;)

Think i'll go for black tyres next time. The white looks nice, but they soon discolour.

I've done about 220 miles on mine so far, and it seems to be settling in, no more issues. I've decided though, im gonna book into my lbs to get the gears set up 100% - we just can't seem to get them right, tried allsorts.

It'll be a 10 minute job for the lbs.

Moose, I noticed your brake levers are aluminium, they look different to mine. Did you specify anything different on your order?

Cheers.

I noticed the levers and the rear derailleur are different from yours. Are yours the Centuar carbon?

I didn't spec anything different on my order, I was expecting the alloy gear but secretly hoping for the carbon and may still change

Lost a pound or two after that pizza :biggrin:

That grass will get cut when I'm good and ready and no sooner (I need a gardener) :rolleyes:

mine is the Centaur yes, and on close inspection, I think the parts in question are carbon.

No mate, thought it musta been standard with the Centaur set up.

Just had a great ride with the lads over on mtbe.co.uk . Carlton bank was a bit of a naughty one :biggrin:

Just got back to my flat, where my lovely new Ribble was waiting in my bed!

Mine has the carbon levers and mechs too. I think it's because I ordered mine earlier - it was delivered around the end of May but I've been away since before then.

Annoyingly my Speedplays are at the PO depot so I won't have them til tomorrow but I might put some SPDs on for a quick spin. Oh boy oh boy oh boy...:smile:
