Hmmmm is that old school?

I love it - haven't found anything that I enjoy to ride as much...

i don't know if it's old school or no...but I love the frame Your Look is simply lovely. Nice combination of colours. I want to switch also for a white tape and saddle. They look much better.

This is pre-upgrade. DA 7900, Aliante carbon saddle, FSA Carbon bar, stem and seatpost are on order...

Ahhh, you do the rounds on the 'other' forum too...

Here's some more up-to-date pics of my Soloist Team following a few upgrades:





Now wearing a black & white team edition Fizik Arione saddle, 3T Ergosum Pro bars (testing the shape and drop prior to getting Ergosum or Ergonova Team carbon ones), 3T Funda Pro forks, black Tacx Tao bottle cages and black & white Stella Azzurro bar tape.

Previous incarnation still in my signature for comparison - looks much better now I think! 8)

Flambes

This must be my last bike build for a while, unless I get a recumbent or unicycle, in the garage is:
Road carbon best bike, Winter road bike, Full sus MTB, commuter, and now my singlespeed (which will be fixed when I buy a wheel).



Picked up the frame at a jumble, then built it up using GP4's on Suntour sprint, a Campy Strada chainset, old style Chorus brake levers and whatever else was in the garage.

JC.152

your cervelos looking good

how heavy is it roughly ?

Rich-Ti

Not weighed it yet - I'd guess somewhere around 17.5lbs, but will have to weigh it and check!

Thats lovely m8. Nice purchase.

As a newbie to cycling, it amazes me just how many different bikes there are out there that I've never heard of....lol.

Thanks, I certainly really like it. I certainly hadn't heard of them before I got it... I think they are better known in the states. Such a friendly company though - one of the co-founders was quite happy to sit and chat to me on the phone about the bike and what he thought of various components for it.

Your pinarello looks good though, I was fairly seriously tempted by some of the ones in velo ecosse (assuming thats where yours came from), they had that Prince in the window for quite a while... mmmm...

Just bought one of these for a first bike, I didnt want to spend a huge amount being a total newbie... But im still waiting for it to clear customs.... :evil:

Ta...!!!

Yep, thats where I got mine, had a nice surprise. Put a deposit on it when it was listed in there at £950 and a few weeks later when my Cylescheme voucher arrived, I called up the shop and they told me it was on offer at £800. Result!!!.

I love the FP1 to bits, although I've not really got anything else to compare it to, performance and ride wise.

I'll admit it, I bought it 90% for the looks the thing has.

Some gorgeous bike here - very impressive indeed!

Here's mine, spec as in my sig. Stock at the moment - new wheels on the horizon I hope though.



Photo taken in Sidmouth - sorry about the quality (camera phone).

Quite right too. Your bike has to be the best looking £800 steed it is humanly possible to buy! Is it as sweet to ride as it is to look at?

Yep, thats the main reason I went for it. Lovely looking and now ive got it, its even better when you actually see it There are better entry level bikes such as the Boardman, but looks wise I would need to spend double to find something better.

It's being a week of bad things with the bike nearly everyday something going wrong on both of my bikes.
