Cheap and cheerful for river banks. Finished building it today.

Granted this is my Cannondale, but the title didn't specify Giant what, and it's a 60cm frame with loads of seat post. I'm 6' 5" and lots of people think my bike is for Giants

Beaten to it by JB, but I actually got mine from Halfords when I had some vouchers I could only use there.

I can't remember how much they were, but the Pro branded ones from Tredz are cheaper as long as P&P is free, be advised, these things are quite heavy.

I've never seen anything like that. Can you give us some background to it? All the boring details if you don't mind.

its a giant mcr2, designed by mike burrows, after he designed the lotus bike that boardman won the Olympics on , he designed this for giant shortly afterwards the uci changed the rulings so all bikes used in their races had to have the double triangle design hence production stopped, and as i gather they are reasonably rare , originally this would have had the mike burrows wheels with the massive carbon spokes and alloy rims, mine is sporting aerospokes and dura ace running gear, its a full carbon monocoque and very aero design, although on the heavier side compared to modern frames especially with the aerospokes too, i love it though

Interesting. Thanks for posting.
