What's everyone riding?

[cyclingfury]

Custom built titanuim by Marco Bertoletti (Italy). 10 speed campag chorus, WR compositi wheels. Fantastically comfortable and very fast. The triple chain set, and extended head tube (because I'm not as supple as I used to be!), makes it the ideal sportive bike for me.

Nice to see you on here cyclingfury and I am still dribbling over your ti beauty my friend. Love it!

 

[Dave Davenport]

For best:Bianchi Matta S9 ti / Zondas / Dura Ace

Audax / winter / light touring: Kinesis Racelite T /open pro's /Ultegra/compact

Time trials: Cannodale Caad 4 frame / Protons / Ultegra / tri-bars (I will / must do more next season)

Trails etc. Cannondale F700 (doesn't get out much)

Pub / shops etc.: Golden Pigeon 50lb. clunker / rack / stand / dynomo's / PTO

Still 'need' a fixed.

07 Specialized Roubaix Pro (a mix of Dura Ace and Ultegra with FSA carbon cranks and Roval Fusee wheels). For training/weekends.

Condor Potenza fixed for commuting. The original was an 05 Pista EOM which developed a 'cosmetic' problem with a small section of joint filler and was replaced in 06 for an 06 EOM frame, which devloped the exact same fault earlier this year. Shame of shames Condor had no warranty stock left so replaced with the 07 Potenza frame I have today. It's a much comfier frame than the EOM. It's running on OpenPro CD rims and Goldtec hubs

Thanks Giant Man. Good to be here, took me a while to find out where you'd all disappeared to!

 

[Disgruntled Goat]

Interesting to see that the more 'vocal' members of the board (simoncc, bonj etc) aren't giving details.

Do you guys ride bikes in any meaningful way or do you just come on here to spout guff?

Mine:
1997 Spesh Rockhopper Pro
Spesh Tricross S-Works
Santa Cruz Roadster
1985 Alan Leggero

i didn't give the details for the complete collection... as well as the Fuquay and Pegoretti Marcelo i have:

Orange Clockwork with dx running gear
Orange E4 with a mix of running gear, mainly sachs with Hope hubs
Orange Clockwork with track ends running as a single speed.

there's also a Pinarello Stelvio road frame and boxes of bits that needs to be built up.

 

[Yer Maw Mate Yer Maw]

As mentioned elsewhere

British Eagle Touristique - a 1980's competitor to the Dawes Galaxy but with a livelier ride. £50 off ebay. Nice frame, so worth a bit of updating IMO.

modified Bob Jackson tourer with 26" wheels. It's a kind of HGV of the bike world!

Roberts Compact Audax - built for me and specced for fast rides in the hills. Altho' not that light, it can shift.
