    It's an empty box weighed down to feel like it's got a bike in it :lol:
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Can't believe you're admitting to owning a stolen bike!

    That is one very nice bike you have mate, just bought a boardman ltd ed carbon as my first bike(due to v.f.m and the great reviews it got) but if i improve and actually use my bike often i may aspire to owning something like yours one day lol.

    Love the colours and looks, if you don't mind me asking what sort of price are these?

    Thanks loxster. :D

    Hi Damon. What size frame is that CR1 and how tall are you? I've been looking at buying one of these for a while but none of my LBS have any in stock.

    Have you taken it on any rides yet? How does it feel? I just purchased the 2010 CR1 Pro frame, but I'll be building mine up with Chorus 11 and custom wheels. Super stoked! They are a great looking bike!

    Not been the weather for new bikes :(

    Mine has had a couple of trips out, and now we are at a weekend when I can play & the wife is away so kid duty means no riding :(

    Classic, when mine got delivered I went to the neighbour's to get it, braced myself when I grabbed the box and nearly threw it over my head. Severe malfunction. My eyes obviously deceived my brain into thinking a box that big could only be really heavy!

    Did the same thing when my wheels came the other day. Even after going "oh yeah, it's not heavy, it's bike stuff" I had to then open it to convince myself the box wasn't empty. Double deceived.

    Randomly my Cannondale came in the same Scott box. :?
