No, I had to buy them direct from Orange as they've bought all the UK stock!
Had to buy a bike too, so at the moment they work out quite expensive!0 -
20 inch Scandal frame. Not actually purchased, but it's in my basket and I'm fighting the urge to buy.............Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.
Who are you calling inbred?0 -

EDIT- wrong thread but it can stay here aswell.0 -
Looks like I'm going to be surviving on baked beans for a while, since I've just ordered a set of uber cheap (well, £100) Recons for my Scandal.0

You want black gear cables on that not white!0
-
I thought you ordered that before Christmas?
Oh, and as much as it pains me to do this, I actually agree with Andy on this one :shock: . Black Cables FTW.0 -
i phoned the rep, but enver got round to ordering it but black cables on a black frame just look plain boring imo 0
-
it would need to be an insanely bright white. if only hope did anodised cable covers. gun smoke colour would look nice.
anyways got a lazer genesis xc helmet. trying to figure out why i bought a pair of alpinestars octane gloves. got that cedric gracia season one picture book, its nice tho a bit on the small side compared to steve peats picture book.0 -
just ordered shimano m161 shoes,overshoes,2 pairs of spds,nukeproof grips,bell sequence helmet in green and black and all delivered to France for free.
Should be here Tuesday hopefullyI assume this is French petrol - be careful in reverse - the car will retreat rapidly at the least provocation.0 -
I agree with the Lawman I'm afraid, white cables on a black bike will look fantastic0

Finally someone on here sees sense some of the components are black, barring the rims, forks, saddle, grips and cables and hoses, the rest will be black with some lime green bling, should look pretty good IMO 0 -

Sounds like a awesome build BTW0 -
ive got white cables on the maxlight, and they just look right against the black frame, seen a few mojos built with white cables too and they look really nice, should (most hopefully) be finished by mid february, hoping to christen it on the crudcatcher forest of dean ride

Some rare earth magnets for the cadence sensor. Cost me £3 for 10 but means I have spares if it falls off, got no plans to use anything to secure it to the crank.I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0

Why are MTB economics; spend twice as much as you intended, but only half as much as you wish you could afford? :roll:0 -
got a 9mm thru axle and adaptor kit for the front of the ragley (orange)
got a 10mm thru axle and adaptor kit for the arse of the pig (orange)
at some point going to get myself a 50mm stem, to see how that changes the ride. (ive used a 120mm 10deg and a 100mm 6 deg, so fancy a 50mm 6 deg for a chance)0 -
