Very nice, I like it even thought it looks too much like a show bike at a trade show, hope it gets use and not just for posing.

Sweet! Looks very bling! I hope you don't decide on colour coordinating your clothing with it though. :P

Any chance you can lets us know where you got the small bits and bobs from?

Wow, wasn't expecting it to look that good

That's some attention to detail, very 8)

Black and gold. Very nice build. Great attention to detail and much bling!

The Gold makes it look cheap...sorry.

Wow, certainly bold, reminds me of the African women that stretch their necks by wearing lots of gold rings around their neck! That spacer stack, stem, bar set up looks almost serpentine. Would you not be better dropping the spacers, rotating the bars back and dropping the shifters down so they're horizontal with the bars?

Unconventional cable routing, I guess the frame design forces you into that?



Not my taste, but it definitely stands out.

It reminds me of a Raleigh Record Sprint - which I think is a good thing. My dream bike when I was 12. :-)

That bike is absolutely beautiful! My father in law also has an obsession with black and gold, I think it is a great combo!

Hi
I promise that I am going to punish the bike during the season :twisted:

Hi
I'm a little embarrassed to admit it but I have already done it :oops:

most of the things are bought on Ebay, but I'll try if I can, make a list doing the weekend where on Ebay I bought them

declan1

That's beautiful. Amazing attention to detail - my favorite bit has to be that seatpost/saddle combo. Stunning!

Hi
yes the frame is a part of it and because I might need some wider handlebars, so I made cables 1 - 2 cm longer so I didn't have to buy new once

Yosti

Thank you all for your kind words

zoltansocrates

is that a raleigh super burner?
what is with the cable routing? that is bizarre and a bit of a shame really

If drug dealers had road bikes

very bling, some incredible attention to detail

your saddle looks very far forward. Is that your normal position? I have mine quite far forward to but after some knee pain I moved it a little back which solved the problem.

Anyways, nice bike, enjoy

Click on the picture until you get to the view all sizes screen (black surround).

Click view all size option (top right of screen) and then select the size you wish to use.

Once you are viewing the size you want there is a download option (above the picture).

Right click on the blue link name and select copy shortcut.

Paste the shortcut in between the

I'm not a fan of the gold spacers since they draw attention to a nice fat stack of them. Would only look good if the stem was slammed with one spacer underneath.

jordan_217

The gold isn't my cup of tea but I can still appreciate what you've done, very nice build indeed. Enjoy!

What's the quality of the frame like? How's the ride? I'm thinking of getting one myself.......

Crispyapp

I like the blk and gold. Not my choice but I do like it. Loving the attention to detail with all the bolts... However u need to change the cabling it looks very odd. It should route under your bars and down in line with the frame....

pitchshifter

Liking the black and gold.

2 things i'd change.

- Ditch the gold spacers for normal carbon ones
- change the bars for more shallower ones. They look a bit odd to me, but each to their own.

junglist_matty

How long will that chain stay gold!?

Yosti

Hi
Ohwell, im a retard
just pushed the cables down under the handlebars, so they are in the right possession
Btw the spacers are there, because of my stomach is a bit to big so to sit properly ,until it's gone I'll have to have them on the bike, but the goal is to remove them in time,
