    Many thanks for sorting pic.

    Yes I really enjoy the bike. Gets raced as much as possible.

    It is actually the replacement for my S2 that was stolen along with another three of my bikes last year. Luckily the insurers paid out and this is what I built up. I now keep it in the house for safekeeping!

    Love to see what it would look like without the decals on the rims.

    Looks tuff though. Very nice

    Just out of interest where did you get the cranks from?? ive been looking at the q rings for my bike.

    I bought the cranks and rotor rings in the States as nobody here seemed to stock the them with the Quarq power meter. I think they might now be available in the UK.

    To be fair, Boardman bikes look crap (AIR excepted), it's got nothing to do with the frame colours.

    No they don't.

    As for the Cervelo; nice looking bike! Mind you, the colour mismatch on the yellow of the wheel stickers would bug me :wink:

    Nice bike.

    Lose the decals on the wheels, makes the bike look gawdy

    Re the decals. I only had them put on this week for the Scottish Road race championships. The shop that sponsors the team are launching the wheels and wanted a bit of publicity.

    I think they will be coming off this week.

    its worth it to see the look on faces when they think halfords biker ill have him and then realise maybe they cant.

    wow lovely.

    you should have a single strip of yellow bar tape an inch or so below the hoods, continuing from the yellow on the levers ;)
