    Nice looking bike. What is Duramax then?
    You'd notice your braking would be much better with 6700 brakes!

  • thanks, it's Duomax ;) google it up. and get some, good for uni ;) duramax sounds like something you'd use.... (well at uni too.....)
    i'd notice my pockets empty more though :( the brakes on it now are horrible in the wet, but i dunno what other brakes are like in the wet. and only going to spend money on the fixie build :D
  • here's my first ever road bike, was too big for me! haha, handed down from my uncle.

    GT Force, i think 1999. been constantly updated. but, all the bits work seemlessly!

  • fitted a pair of borrowed Gipiemmes for a ride today (hence the red tyres and skewers), 40mm rims are so much fun..rain on the other hand, is not.
