  • Wasn't Wiggins using a Dogma in British National Champ colours at last year's race? Maybe this is his spare.

    If I was selling Wiggins' bike, and he had ever actually ridden it (at all, let alone in the tdf), I would mention that fact in my ad.
  • I think the ad does mention it, several times?

    Which highlights the naivety of my post, I guess. This is why I don't work in sales.

    He's 6'3" and only rides a 56cm?! That's where I'm going wrong.

    yeah, but have you seen the length of that stem to get a proper reach?

    Loads of pros ride a bike that's 'too small' for them, partly cos of the change in frames to taller head tubes to accommodate the 'less flexible' rider. Smaller frames allow them to get a larger saddle to handlebar drop. S'also why their saddles are often set right back. NIck Legan talks about this on his latest VeloNews column (final item):

    I cant believe this is his either, 56cm too small for him and no way is this worth £12000, probably a training bike but not his.
    BCF usually sell squad bikes.
