    Very nice looking bike, but it looks MASSIVE!
    My dad has an old Carerra which is probably older than most forum members, but it's still going strong!

    Aye it does the jobs, needs a few little upgrades and it'll be fine for a couple of years. Enjoy your fury :D

    nice bike. i always enjoy setting them up at work. i have noticed, however, that the early batches came with X7 rear mechs and now they are X5's, strange why that happened...

    only two upgrades i think you definitely would need are better tyres and grippier pedals (or spds), the OE pedals are awful! but can't complain for the price!

    Hello, mine has the X5 front & rear :cry:

    Just wanted to ask a question that you may be able to answer, do i adjust the High & Low on both mechs when the cable is under tension ?

    Many thanks in advance, regards Damian. :)
