    Thats a very nice bike. A light yet workman like build, there's nothing on there (apart from maybe the LTD Bar and Stem) that makes sacrifices in strength for ultimate lightweight, well done!

    Have you got any idea of a total bike weight. I'm imagining around 13.5lbs or somewhere around that.

    That bike is soooo nice. Only question - what size of Topeak saddle bag is that? It looks fairly large. I think a smaller he would look better. But in terms of the bike - I like it!

    Thanks for the comments, don't know the weight but it's pretty light. I'll get it checked out next week as I'm due back in the bike shop ;-).
    The saddle bag is a small.

    Really nice bike.

    One thing, the red on the gears clash with the blue on the garmin. Can we leave with you to sort?

    Are those the speedplay nanogram pedals?

    I won't even ask what's going on with those shifters.

  • Is that the best place for your garmin? Surely it will increase your aero drag?

    I think the stem looks too nice to cover up

    So do I, need to sort out replacements for yellow dustcaps and are the Garmin covers interchangeable ?

    Thanks for the comments

    Hi

    Speedplay Zero S/S pedals, and what's the issue with the shifters ?

    They need moving up the bars.

    As I stated earlier, I only picked the bike up yesterday and am grateful for any pointers as I know it needs tweaking.

    I'll arrange a proper fit in the next couple of days and get it all sorted.

    Many thanks for all the comments and keep them coming, much appreciated.

    regards
