I was bored today, so I went looking at bikes and stuff.

I'm no triathlete. But I am a sucker for intersesting engineering. It's going to be fun.

Are you not going to get one, Potsy? I hear you are giving your blue bike to @summerdays so you'll have a bit of room in your shed.

He promised me his MB, even more room then
@Racing roadkill not my cuppa your new bike (where are the pannier rack eyelets??? ) but if you like it, why not?
I can't see the price, bet it's £££££

It better be fast !!!

Just ask yourself, would Maitre Jacques* have ridden something like that ?

*for the benefit of the triathletes on this forum, I refer to Jacques Anquetil, classiest time triallist of all time.

If you don't get properly fit on this bike and post a picture as evidence, I will find you, I will kill you.

They tell me it's 'rip your skin off' fast. I had a "rip your skin off fast" bike, when I had my ( massively missed) Shiv Pro race. They are lots of fun.

I assume you are racing this. Quick bit of kit on a TT course.

It's not 'budget'. But if a job's worth doing, it's worth doing well.

I don't race, or compete. But I do like nicely engineered stuff.

That is just so nice.

He wont be allowed to ride it on a TT . Its the rules innit .

How's your bad back, neck and shoulders? I hope you've got a good osteopath.

My bad back, neck and shoulders are due to a high speed crash on a TT bike. I'm a sucker for pain.

This is true. I once got binned in a TT for having a " non regulation drink system". The names I called them began with W, and ended with "anchor".

Oh... you do know TT bikes don't handle as well as a proper road bike ? It will be fast in a straight line though.

Yes, I found out the hard way.
