Ordered my new bike

[rideswithmoobs]

Happily ordered new bike today. After watching an equilibrium then a second hand day one go on eBay for £460 I missed out on winning, I did a web search and found the same Genesis day One Disc 2015 model discounted to just over £500 so placed my order and relieved to have finally made a decision and happy to have saved 400 quid extra It cost for a similar cotic
I will be using it through the winter and looking forward to the rain, snow and cold
Alls left is to fit mudguards, all suggestions welcome and a new helmet and winter shoes. Again please recommend any good choices
Glad to be back on a bike again in my favourite time of year

let's just hope that the online shop actually has some stock. Far too many online shop advertise stuff that they don't actually have, and often can't get either!

Yeah I thought that so gave them a call and said all good and will be delivered Wednesday. If it turns into a game of ping pong emails/calls with no bike arriving I will cancel immediately. Can't be arsed with all that crap
Fingers crossed

I like it,
But could you please tell me what's the max tyre width?

I would like one , but only if it can take tyres over 40mm .
Cheers

I'm sooooo jealous!! First dibs if you ever get tired of it makes my Pompino look slightly dated.

Not sure of maximum. It comes with conti 35mm on and there is loads of clearance so quiet possibly will take a 42.

I couldn't sell it. Wife would beat me. Let you know once I fly back home if it turns out I do t live it but I'm afraid it's unlikely
