Thought I'd show you all my newest pride and joy.
Tis a B'twin Rockrider 500, managed to pick it up for £160 new due to a special deal I had with Decathlon. Pretty good for what I paid!
Added a few bits so far, mudguards, bar ends, new gripper grips, under saddle bag, comfier saddle, bottle cage and a sigma trip computer. May upgrade the disc brakes to Avid BB7's, but the stock hayes mx5's aren't too bad.
Going to have the front wheel dish adjusted on Monday and need to have the gears tweaked slightly as the shop set them up fine on the workstand, but once I'm riding it the chains come off a couple of times.
Also looking to get some continental tubes and vapour tyres next payday. Been a joy to ride so far!

And a couple of pictures from a bumpy trip through the crops!
