    If you have to marry one of your sisters you should always marry the one older than you. That way you can say she groomed you...

    I do not have any sisters.
    You sound dissappointed. :wink:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    If I did have a sister she wouldn't meet my lawyer, essex girl or girl with an irish accent fantasy.

    Not to mention that having relations with your sister is, in some cultures, socially wrong* - about as wrong as a cyclocross bike - I mean why? - and only acceptable in Eastenders.

    A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

    Trust DDD to pick up on that question. I have two sisters, one less infuriating than the other so that would be a much easier, if completely wrong, question to answer. Neither of them are called Kinesis.
  • I'm a Cotic owner to throw my hat into the ring, I have a Road Rat with BB7's where the front fork is pretty straight so does not give as soft a ride as you may expect. It's a great quirky bike and the thin tubes look cool but in your situation I would go for the Kinesis, good looking and light.

    My core reason for a Road Rat was more about something I could run fixed or with gears and fit with guards.

    (obviously if you buy a Kinesis make sure you position the brake levers and bars in the correct position, that pic makes it look hideous!)
    If I know you, and I like you, you can borrow my bike box for £30 a week. PM for details.
