    Naturally... :shock:

    There are a hell of a lot of traffic lights in Singapore, by the time I get up to cruising speed its time to stop at the next lights which negates the aero advantage of the Zipps, factor in weight of both the wheels, myself and the bomb proof nature of the Fulcrums it just made sense.

    I don't think Pitchshifter is questioning your choice of wheels, just the fact that you commute on such an expensive bike - but then again I think that could be the difference between commuting in London and Singapore. :);)

    ^This.

    Nice bike.

    Thanks for the positive comments guys,

    At a later date I want to swap out the DA for SRAM Red 2013 but for now I am happy with the DA.

    I'd keep the DA, 2013 Red very expensive at the mo, and wait until it comes down. I'm in the process of changing from old red to SR.
    I always really liked my Red but fancied a change. I'll be keeping the rotor cranks and Zero G brakes though.

    Seems as good a place as any to post this, I noticed this morning that sigma sports are doing the R3 for £1450 with the discount code WINTER15 shame i've just bought an R5

    Sizes are running low, happy hunting http://www.sigmasport.co.uk/p/22164/cer ... eset-2012/
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    Yes mate, you're correct, there is still a lot of life in the DA yet so no plans to swap out in the immediate future, just an idea for further down the line, however that said, you can find some great deals online, particularly from bike-discount.de I bought my 2013 Fulcrum racing zeros from there for just GBP 450.

    My 2009 RS last April up in the Lake District

    574912_10150665633208915_117150385_n.jpg

    Since then I changed the bars from Easton to 3T and it's got a new set of Michelin Endurance 4 on it as well as new Gore outer+inner gear cables.

    I also got rid of the saddle bag and added a set of Knog-like lights from Tesco:-)

    Currently it sits in the garage collecting dust while I'm trying to recover from a back injury...might take a few more months. If that happens I will treat it to a new wheelset as the braking surface on these Racing 3's is nearly gone...

    Just built to replace my R3 SL, this is my new R5 VWD, haven't ridden it yet as the roads have been bad, I'll cut the steerer down when I'm satisfied with the height.

    Very nice, glad to see someone else likes their white hoods!

    I'm in the same position with the weather....I think using a surf board might be more appropriate

    I did like my S1, That's a very cool looking bike and I think actually looks better than a lot of the more expensive models.
