Erhh disgusting. I was wondering about getting a bike painted in a camouflage pattern but decided on a cam net instead.I was thinking of getting my alfine stealth bomber powder coated orange.. might have to go acid/lime green now
Perfect...it's properly hard on the eyes![]()
It's extremely low! a 42/32/22 is the same as my MTB and with thinner slicks and lighter weight, I could be running out of gears on the flat
haha! They had a green Lithium in the shop and it's properly hard on the eyes![]()
Uhmmmmmm .... the perfect tourer?It's extremely low! a 42/32/22 is the same as my MTB and with thinner slicks and lighter weight, I could be running out of gears on the flat

Ahem... I seem to have bought your same bikeIt has the gearing for it![]()
What !!! ??? @Pat "5mph" has purchased a NEW bike ???Ahem... I seem to have bought your same bike
With Quidco cash back, on my Tesco clubcard that gives you double points to spend in Evans for other bits, plus I will see if I can get my BC discount when I collect it, even if this seems to be pushing my luck a big bit!
Merry Christmas to us both![]()
I may have bought another bike....
OK OK I have bought another bike. I had a totally different kind of ride last saturday and I really enjoyed it, but the old Raleigh is not suited to what I want to on that kind of ride (it can't take a rack), and as it happens, Evans have some nice discount on a cheap Hybrid with nice fat tyres and no rubbish suspension. I can put a rack on it, so I can take the big camera with me, for rides where I want to go slower and not be wearing lycra.
The colour is a bit... errr.... louder than I usually go for I admit, but it should do the job admirably.
It arrives tommorrow in a big box.
Anyone want to buy an aluminium Giant Defy? It definately has to go now with another bike arriving![]()
Mistakes will happen …WHY DOES THIS TERRIBLE AFFLICTION KEEP ON HAPPENING TO US ALL???????
Last time I purchased a brand new bike, that cost me almost 3 times the price of this one, I ended up not liking the bike at all, after a year getting a new to me frame, transferring the components.
