Boring old black???
I have black on both my bikes, i think im having silver on the new fixed though
Ive not touched my bike yet since sunday, just been in the gym instead.
The white bar tape doesnt look bad, will look abit worse when its grey though.
Black must of made the bike look abit dumb though.

Yer, i really can, what makes you say that?

They just look very lo.


And I'm on a mission to get everyone with drops (who doesn't actually race) to raise their bars.

 

[Joe24]

The bars on my Giant are as low as they can go, and they are still too high i think.
On my fixed the bars were as low as i could get them.
On the new fixed they will be able to go even lower. My plan is to have them really low, and not use them, just ride around no handed all the time

 

[roadiewill]

I saw some guy on Bikeradar forums had a Giant SCR3 and had attached one of those adjustable stems, but had it pointing vertically down, so the bars were about 3 inches lower than they could have gone by removing all the spacers. Looked crap mind...

Am really loving the white tape! What make is it? It comfortable? I've got some Deda tape arriving tomorrow in glorious white too! First time fitting! Nice!

You going to get white hoods too? Am very tempted!

Its the Specialized Roubaix stuff...
And unfortunately no one makes replacement hoods for the Tiagra group sets

 

[Davywalnuts]

Oh cool! I saw the Spez Phat tape but got a bargain on the Deda!

Thats a bugger! Still, I gotta pay £20 for the dura-ace hoods! But they will be mine!

That's cos you are OLD.......

That tape is whiter than snow...but for how long...... looks smart.

Tip - scrub with a damp cloth with a bit of washing up liquid on - works a treat..
