One nice mountain bike there. How much does that thing way now probably less than your average road bike. Bet it rides real nice, I'd be too scared off scratching it.
Snap! Although yours seems to have different wheels from mine. Gorgeous bike though, isn't it?my SL4 Roubaix

It comes in at 8.7 kg now, Its a really cool bike. The epic is the only full suspension 29r which can take two full sized water bottles but it does not look like it has more space in the frame than the competition, its quite clever how they achieved this IMHO.
The world cup has a shorter chainstays and more agressive front fork angle than the normal epic which helps its handling, the bike turns in exceptionally well and does not have the cumbersome feel of some 29r I have ridden seem to for smaller riders like myself.

Put the Tarmac on Zipp 404 firecrests today, looks reasonable.

Looks more then reasonable mate.
Those Zipp wheels look so much better without the gaudy decals. Looks class.
Yeah they are gorgeous, I changed the wheels after i got it, always wanted deepish carbons

I like the look of those bottles with covers over the mouthpiece. I didn't fancy using mud (and whatever else) splattered bottles but they seem to offer decent mouthpiece protection.

Yea they seem to work really well and at least I don't have to wear a camelbak anymore.

Picked up a new Specialized Roubaix SL4 today(full carbon). In matt black with full internal cable routing.
This is a stock picture. But I have changed the saddle and pedals and added my edge 800 with cadence sensor.
I will take a pic in daylight tomorrow. Rode it for half an hour back from Evans and it is the dogs nuts....VERY HAPPY!

very very nice!
how much does she weigh?
it even comes with black bar tape rather than the more common white stuff that gets so sirty and spoils a wonderful bike!
Cheers Ed
