    To be honest I didn’t buy them to match the bike I brought then because they were comfy.
  • Comfort is No.3 on the list. It goes; looks, safety, comfort, cost. Simple. :P

    They are a nice pair of shoes, but did they not have any other colours? :(

    Nice bike too, btw. I think I forgot to say. :?
  • How about something custom?

    Hmmm, I'd order the bike swag buying priorities like this -

    1 - Cost (Higher the better)
    2 - Looks
    3 - erm... Do we have to have a 3?

    Unless you want to include weight (or lightness) then I'd say you have it all covered :lol:

    no - lightness is covered with the rules above - and is directly proportional to the cost - i.e. the more expensive the lighter

    Strange to see a Bianchi that is not Celeste green.
    Nice bike right enough, I like it in blue. 8)

    Nice bike... very simple.
    Why are your valve stems different lengths?... Puncture? :roll:

    There are many bike photographs on here but the reference shot must be taken in a specific way otherwise there will be a higher risk of flaming. Plus, it shows your lovely bikes off better!
    Don't say I didn't warn you!

    1 - Bike should be against a white background, preferable a garage door so the bike shows up properly, or if taken well, a black background with suitable lighting.

    2 - Bike must be flat to camera, no silly angles.

    3 - Bike must be drive side showing

    4 - Chain in big ring, towards the smaller cogs at the back

    5 - Crankarm following the line of the seat tube or chainstay

    6 - Stem must be in the negative fitting. Even if you ride with it pointing up.

    7 - Dork discs, reflectors, pumps, lights etc are NOT acceptable, again, even if you ride with them.


    Should no 8 and 9 read something like this

    8- Valves must be at 6 o'clock
    9- No water bottles allowed.

    Just no pleasin you, have you got a compulsive disorder?

    Getting better, but ass I understand it the valves should line up with the labels on the tyres which should in turn line up with the wheel graphics. The valves should then both be in the same position (12, 3, 6 or 9 o'clock). :lol:
