Hi all,

Last summer I got back into proper road cycling following a 20 odd year break. My last bike was a Peugeot Equipe (must be a classic by now) when I was 14. I've owned a Trek 7100 FX hybrid for about 8-9 years and its still going strong for commuting. Last summer I bought a Carrera TdF ltd edition and quickly moved onto a Specialized Secteur Sport triple in November.

Having spent the last few months umming and ahhing over buying something better, I finally settled on a Scott CR1 Comp today courtesy of my LBS Chaingang Cycles of Hereford.

I appreciate I have bent rule 26 somewhat and do humbly beg everyone's forgiveness but I was a tad excited

Nice bike, but I do not see how Scott are making a profit giving away all those spacers on a bike. That is not a dig to throw them all in next doors garden and slam the stem but I have never seen a bike come supplied with that many before. :shock:

I agree, I was suprised to see four spacers when I collected it, (although they probably only cost Scott a few pence).

I haven't done a proper ride on it yet and will most probably be removing a couple of spacers once I'm satisfied with the geometry and set up I require. Bear in mind my previous bike was a Spesh Secteur Triple which has a pronounced 16 degree upward stem rise, which I eventually flipped to 8 and then -8.

Had my first ride on the bike and have removed two spacers but will in all probability remove one more.
