Very very nice bikes0

That Trek is one hell of a good looking bike. Ditch the saddle bag though, stops it from being the coolest bike on the forum!
What rims are they and what does it ride like? Edit - Crank Bros Iodine - sorry.0 -
love those wheels
imagine there's a bit of money been put un those 2 bikesI assume this is French petrol - be careful in reverse - the car will retreat rapidly at the least provocation.0 -
P.I.M.P
Those wheels probably cost more than my bike!
Lovely.0 -
very nice looking bikes mate. loving the trek.0

The poor Yeti isn't getting much attention

Did you actually carry the bike around for photo's ? There aint a spec of mud or dust on it anywhere Looks gorgeous though.0 -
the bike gets used every week rain, shine or snow. I`ve explained in another thread that two weeks ago I fractured my shoulder and broke two ribs, so I`m not riding too much at the mo. I did go for a ride today though.

Very nice, i see the CB wheels came off for your ride today, are they just for photoshoots then?0
-
The sh*tty photos are from a few weeks back to show that the bike is used every week, whatever the weather. The CB wheels were only fitted yesterday. At the moment I have a fractured shoulder and two broken ribs so I can`t go thrashing about at the mo. Give me a chance to heal and you`ll see this bike out in all weathers.
give me a breakole ginger b*ll*cks / the ginger ninja0 -

Must admit, i`m a tiny bit jelous of those wheels
Don`t think they`d go to well with the Meta though.0 -
Trekhead take a look at the hope stuff on this pagehttp://www.singletrackworld.com/2009/02/core-bike-news/
It will look mint on your steed.0 -
yeah I do like the Hope stuff. Maybe something a bit more subtle though? We don`t want to over do it now chaps.

Your Trek is the mut nuts Trekhead..i can but dream.0

shanta
thanks very much. I`m going for a white seat post next, then I`ll probably leave it alone. I want to keep the gold / orange low down and white on the top half.

Oh sh*t K2
just checked out the link - see what you mean, I like that alot.
Oh well, more feckin expenseole ginger b*ll*cks / the ginger ninja0 -
The trek does look bloody good, like the Yeti Too 8)0
-
dont do the white seatpost, i think the black bars and seatpost add a bit of contrast to the white and copper, 2 colour bikes look cheap and tacky and at the moment your trek is the stuff of dreams its gorgeous, it just looks right, keep a bit of black on it is my opinion.who cares?0
-
Treakhead, no matter what else you upgrade on your bike it will never look tacky - and now the seat bag has vapourised, it is officially the coolest bike on the forum.0
-
Personally I would get a white seatpost. And you HAVE to get that orange Truvativ, even if it's only for us lot to drool over!!0
-
latest incarnation
white seatpost and clamp, white pedals and orange spacers.
think I`m done now, might do crank arms, we`ll see.
The bike rides fantastic, the CB wheels are superb. The bikes done 110 miles in 8 days, through rain, sheep sh*t, two rivers and the `bomb hole` at Kenilworth Castle for those who know it. Oh yeah, I clean it after I`ve used it.
Thanks for all the positive comments, and the not so positive. It`s always good to know peoples opinions.
cheers

I take my hat off to you sir. One hell of a bike. If it was mine Id probably hang it on the wall of my lounge and just drool over it all day long.
Give us a clue to total cost?
P.s. If ever you want to get rid can I have first offer?
P.p.s. I''d take the companion bench in the background as well - one seat for me and one for the bike.0 -
a rusty chain would match the colour scheme perfectly.
thats as good looking as a bike gets i reckon.0
