Here she is, pretty standard Tarmac. I've changed the tyres and have just had a set of mavic carbone premiums.
Rides like a dream :D

    Looks great! I like Specialized bikes - the curved top tube just looks really good IMO!

    I have no idea what's going on here.

    Needs more red! How about some red pedals, bar tape and saddle?

    Cheers boys, there's more red but that's just my sore arse after the long rides!

    Too much red for me I'm afraid! doesn't help that I don't like coloured tyres!

    +1 - think the wheels would look better with non coloured tyres, apart form that 'tis looking nice, enjoy

    Thanks for the honest opinions folks. I've tried all black tyres on them but prefer the ultremos. Had a quick blast on it tonight over to the sister inlaws and managed to get there quicker on the bike than I can in the car (it was 5pm rush hour traffic) 16 mile in 50 mins. Only 600ft elevation gain so a pretty flat ride, much more fun than driving though.

    Well spotted amigo! It's all good now. New Michelin tubes as the last one wasn't long enough to get my pump onto. I'll get some fresh pics up this weekend.
