Cube/Wilier/Colnago?

Hey Luke...

Do Wiggle accept C2W vouchers? Just seen this little beauty on there - seems nice for the £.

That is quite nice.

But I think I've decided to go for the Bianchi 1885.

I found out that I'm not limitied to £1000 even at Evans so I'll go for £1300 at £65pm x12, and get some pedals and shoes.

Or maybe I'll get the shoes seperately and order them this week so I can use them with one of Martin's steeds.

I've just ordered all the parts for the old banger I've been building up, so I should be mobile again before the end of the week (and maybe a little squeaky, until I can drag it down to the LBS on a weekend for them to take the rusty BB out.)

It is quite nice, I must say!
How long before you think you'll have it?

 

[redjedi]

Probably just over a week..... hopefully

Not anymore. I've done the Evans one now, no more looking.

£1300 voucher. £1225 for the bike and the rest on some extras.

I posted the forms on Tuesday, and they called yesterday to say the voucher is on it's way I may have it before the weekend.

Do they take the CycleScheme ones, or do they do their own version of it like Evans?

We were already signed up to Evans so was nice and easy.

Lol Ian - you're worse than me for wanting shiny new bikes all the time
That reminds me, I mist go hunting for a fixed before the end of SUmmer and a MTB for the Winter.

haven't read the whole thread but don't go for a Cube. I tried one and it was the worst bike I'd ever been on!

Too late, I've already decided

....but I went for another Bianchi, an 1885 this time. Test ride it tonight

 

[giant man]

Out of those three models, I would go for the Wilier ...

 

[redjedi]

Decision is made, and although I tried to get something different, I ended up going for another Bianchi.

C2W voucher was waiting for me at home (only took 2 days), I pick up the bike on the way to work tomorrow

Now I've got £75 to spend on it. I'll get some Look Keos for £40 (shoes are on order and should be here next week) and I need a new computer.

I was going to go for Cateye micro wireless for £40, but the guy I was speaking to suggests I get one with HR and cadence. He was showing me a Polar CS200CAD for £90 not sure I would use all that though.

 

[redjedi]

Pick it up this morning and it rides like a dream

If you hear something that sounds like a chainsaw it will probably be my Campag wheels purrring.

No more silent drafting for me

Can recommend the Cateye double wireless - speed/cadence...... works fine situated between 2 high power LEDS - no interference......

Nice bike BTW............
