New Rosë bike

Christ that's nice looking.

Now it's been mentioned - why are both on the right and not both on the left? I get you liking them same side but I thought the right side was the left side - getting confusing!

Anyway - sod what side the skewers are, have fun riding one of the best looking bikes I have seen posted on here in yonks!

Now I'm confused. In the photo the front skewer is on the Right (looking from the back - chain side), and the rear skewer is on the Left - isn't it? Convention is both on the Left, isn't it? Doesn't really matter - read various reasons but none of them are that convincing. My Rose had the rear skewer on the Left when delivered - think the convention is the same there, in spite of driving on the wrong side .

That bike looks like its got an attitude, love it.

Awesome looking bike...hope she rides as nicely! I always thought the skewers had to be on the left (looking from the back but thinking about it, I guess only the rear has to be there to be away from the rear mech.

Naked the stated weight was 6.85kg with campag chorus fitted , I upgraded to super record not sure if it adds or reduces weight , but with pedals bottle cages etc prob about 7.5kg

Wheels came as standard with bike had various colour schemes I preferred this one

I have to agree with easytigers though, swap the QR to the other side otherwise you'll have anally retentive OCD sufferers like me bugging you every time you go out on it.

 

[Mugshot]

It's a beautiful looking machine, my back's aching just looking at it!

 

[e-rider]

when taking a photo of your pride and joy, it should always show the right side of the bike! And the Q/R is the wrong side. You have made schoolboy errors here! Clearly a newbie!

I see that they maybe revising this UCI weight limit, and in future it might not be based on weight rather strength ? My bike is reasonably light at 7.5kg but could get down to the limit with some carbon and a mahoosive credit balance However the only place I need to lose weight is round my gut
