    Whilst I understand the excitement of a new hi-tech frame or of some beautiful classic engineering surely the real excitement is in the riding - not just the looking.

    I look at steel bikes from 20+ years ago and think they look extremely ugly in comparison with the Alu and Carbon bikes of today.

    I sort of agree but wouldn't say ugly. In the same way as I prefer Nigella to Kate Moss I prefer the fatter tubes of modern day designs.

    Yep, completely agree - on fatter tubes and the VERY lovely Nigella :lol:
    just put that right for you .....
