Still really like the Ribble bikes and that one looks great. The only thing I would change is the the two tone bar tape. I hope you enjoy riding it as much as looking at it

It was for the looks, I understand there are lighter wheels around for the price of the cosmics but i wanted a sort of aero wheel and the cosmic ticked the boxes.

I wanted to look at the bike and think everything on this bike is perfect... for me.

Looks stunning! what bottle cages are they?

Looking good, was looking at these the other day. I believe the bottle cages are from Elite but don't quote me!

Hi,

Not much of an update but I have now changed my saddle to the Ritchey V2 Marathon Pro.
It was previously the comp version but the colours match better on the pro and it is lighter !
