Time for a new bike.... what one?

[dee.jay]

Yes I've had a rethink. I would be better off getting wheels for the bike I have because other than it being cheap, fundamentally its still a bike and it moves forward. I really can't complain about anything else. Maybe it's the Shiny shiny effect of a new one.

I will get new wheels, lose weight, get the bike I really want. I'm still convinced that it's a roadrat or CdF is what I will buy, probably the RR because of the versatility. In the meantime I can go for it on my cheap bike and not be too downhearted if something else breaks. It's at least cheap to replace cheap components!

Thanks

Heh, a challenger appears.

Chaps at Cotic came back to me and can ship me a bike next week without wheels. Just seeing about a price. That throws a spanner in a bit!

It's so hard to resist the shiny... :-)

Wouldn't a bike with wheels be better?

Flippancy aside, you really shouldn't have a problem with the stock wheels on a decent bike like that.

EDIT: No I'm not, see below.

So this has been bothering me pretty much constantly for two days. I've changed my mind, again. Going for shiny shiny and built wheels. Problem solved.

Hopefully I will be ordering a Alfine based Roadrat (in Orange mmmm) tomorrow.

Aaand, I've ordered.

Ordered Matt Orange, Sora. Keeping it simple. Can't wait!
