    ^^ that does look lovely

    that said I really like the lines of my old KG386

    not quite as modern looking as those frames and a little twitchy on the downhills but I still enjoy riding it :lol: Here it is before the Adamo saddle and all black Conti GP4's 8)

    I never really seen much written about Look frames so dont know what people think of them compared to the more widely known brands, but the newer bikes look cracking.

    Yep, I really enjoyed my KG386, but at 55cm it was just too big for me: -

    BTW The KG386 is for sale as a bargain price, P me for details?

    Agreed the LOOK websites not helpful but it implies that LOOK have stopped doing the 585 Ultra for 2010 . Here is my 585 Ultra 2008 IIRC frame . You can still get 2008 and 2009 ULTRA frames on some sites at knock down prices .

    Was that a particularly warm day? I'm pretty sure your saddle is melting :lol:

    Yeah it was warm that day around 2 deg C . Warm is relative as it seems to have been below zero for months up here in gods little acre . :roll:

    It does look a bit odd but after going through god knows how many saddles this one ( the selle san marco Mantra ) is the best so far

    First ride on Sunday took it down the prom at Blackpool and then back to Lancaster and a couple of climbs from Scorton. Great bike - loved it. DId EVERYTHING well and really comfortable too. Best road bike I've been on. Moved the saddle forward a good deal but fits really well. Don't like the saddle (SanMarco) - otherwise perfect.

    Thanks for your help one and all.
