    I wish they were lightweights :(

    Thanks APIII, they're HED wheels like NapoleonD guessed.

    Non OCP but here is the Litespeed just before the hardest climb I've done since the break. Toot Hill.

    Still need to sort the saddle colour, will be putting the Force Attack tyres on when the DA wheels off the Look go next week for summer and steerer needs cutting. Getting there...

    Here's another lightspeed for the collection 2006 vortex compact. The wheels are new as a 40th birthday present.

    My mate owns a bike shop (Strada Cycles, Bristol) and has had his new Cervelo S2 painted in the shops colours by Argos Cycles in Bristol, I'll try and get some better pics but these will do for now.

    I took it out for a spin on Saturday and now I NEED a pair of those wheels, I am not sure how I ever survived without them :D

    The new wheels.

    They are pink to match the princess theme. I just wish I'd have moved the black bike out of the way first...

    Heh heh, it's usually Sainsbury's but Tesco make great bags for putting plastic recycling in.

    The garage is normally tidy but for this non-OCP shot the articles were strategically strewn in the background...

    Being stuck with a budget of my bike to work schemes £500 and NO MORE! (SWMBO is the master! :)) I settled on a 2010 specialized allez 16, in red :)
    I'm well happy with it, although I've not actually been out on it yet, I'm off out tomorrow morning (wish me luck!)

    (I know it's not on a white background and the chains not on the top ring at the front and the pedals aren't in line with the seat downtube, but the sun came out and I had to snap it :)
    Managed to wangle spd pedals so I can use my current mountainbike shoes, a cateye cadence computer and a set of cateye lights. All for £580.

    Hi mate, enjoy it! You may well find though that you have to rotate the bars up a bit...

    Excellent work, Nap!

    Here is one of my bikes - CAAD8. Currently running Ksyrium Elites wheels, soon to be Dura Ace wheels (courtesy of NapoleonD) when I get round to fitting.
