I've ruled out the off the shelf Expert and Pro Roubaix's and I'm fairly set on an Izoard Pro (when and/or assuming I can get sized for one).0 -

I used it to commute last week and have a tricky section which crosses a junction - cars coming at speed from all directions it seems. In my clip-on's it's a bit tricky so I took them off and put the ordinary pedals back.
Hope the weather stays settled so I can use it more often! :roll:0 -
Heres mine
My winter hack, old Peugeot that I rescued from the local tip, with some bits and pieces souced of ebay to turn it back into a drop bar bike, also pinched the wheels off one of my other bikes.
My summer bike
Van Nichlaus Vardar, 10 spd 105 groupset.
My Retro Museum piece
Frank Kirk 7spd, 105 groupset, loads of old bits, had it since I was a kid.

Ta it always used to get plenty of double take looks, but the front mech shifter lug has come away from the frame so I dont use it anymore. As I'm worried about the structural integrity of the whole thing, they have a reputation for cracking around the BB / rear seat stays and I'd like to keep it in one piece.All the kit on it is early 90's stuff 105 mainly it has one of those weird oval bio pace chainsets on it that were all the range at the time.
The bottle is really old I got it as a freebie with my Zefal track pump years and years ago. It was the only bottle I could find in the cupboard that didnt have mould growing inside it. :shock: Yes I've got some new bottles now 0 -

hey red I got the Medium.. I am stoked with the ride but quite upset with a few things like a loose headset and badly configured gears plus the no rimtape on the wheels. Other then that its awesome.. Its so stiff and shocked myself a few times when pulling off at a roundabout etc.. It doesnt hlod back at all - really responsive.. I hope you find yours the same when you get a chance to ride it..
adios

I think my size is the one bigger than yours (due to that being the one on sale and it being pretty close to the current frame. Ribble seem like to use "medium" rather than 51cm (which I think is medium) which is what Deda use.
I think your frame with decals looks better than mine without, I'll have to look around to find some decent ones to put on. Perhaps my name for starters....0 -
yup thats right - the frame is 51cm and cuz of sloping gemoetry it kinda adds 4cm IIRC. It would have been nice if they could have added my name in small italics somewhere like tery dolan does when he builds bikes.. yous still looks uber nice tho 8)
adios

New Trek to replace it
