New carbon build

[tincaman]

Just built this up from a mint Ribble frame off the Bay, parts sourced from my 2010 Boardman Team, upgraded RS80 wheels, mainly Rival, with Apex mech and cassette for Devon hills.
Also got the option of red bar tape and or black/grey tyres, what do you think?

Great set up. I'd go for black bar tape and black tyres to be honest.

Was just looking at your picture and started noticing stuff in the background which looked very familiar What Mail Centre are you based in ? Work in Edinburgh myself. Although I notice a lack of multicoloured flipcharts, graphs and pretty pictures on the walls

my eyes are bleeding !!!

PS you still have MTTs and LSMs??? Keep em if you can the iLSMs are made of cheese

 

[tincaman]

MTT's and LSM's gone now. Only soft plastic iLsm's and CSS

 

[MrGrumpy]

yep piss poor build quality with piss poor PCs to match. So you on shift? I just came off shifts last year and took over the MTL role.

 

[MrB1obby]

I think red bar tape is too common now, and the tyres don't match the rest of the bike. Black tyres and bar tape although I reckon red pedals could look quite nice if that's possible

Pompey still have MTTs and LSMs, four CSSs went in this year.
