    6ft 4, the seatpost on display looks a bit exaggerated because of the sloping toptube (compact frame) and thanks!

    What size frame is that (I'm 6' 3 and currently on a 58), are you looking for a more aero position or is that just comfortable? Nice D&T skillz too.

    Thanks, took 2 months that to build! T's a shame I won't have space for it when I go to uni though. :lol:

    It's a 60cm, very comfortable actually. Did my longest ride to date last Sunday, 160 miles. I wanted an aero position which is why the stem is 140mm with a 17deg angle. A friend of mine can't even reach the tops whilst sat on the saddle!

    Holy saddle to bar drop Batman!

    You're giving Ryder a run for his money there, nice.

    Can you ride all day like that?

    Thats some bar drop!!!

    Nice bike though, you never, ever see the carbon Fujis on the road and I think they make some cracking looking bikes.

    Cracking bike and obviously a bit handy with a jigsaw, my local shop is a fuji dealer here in spain and they are lovely bikes. If i was as flexible as you must be id work in a circus. Must look proper hardcore. Nice ride that. Wont have room at uni? You renting a tent? Hang it from the ceiling above your bed if you have to takes up no more room than a bed then. Give the girls something to swing from too ;-)

    Wow! Lovely bike and certainly an interesting hanger/tidy.

    However, and I'm probably asking on behalf of many others, is there any chance of a piccy of you actually riding the beast? Must be on the drops - not the hoods! Pretty please? Just need to see it in action! Serious request.

    Thanks for the humorous compliments - had a chuckle! Indeed the storage unit was hand crafted with various bits of machinery. Idea was to have a simple storage unit whilst being able to maintain the bike (tweak gears etc).

    Will try to get some pics with me properly tucked in the drops. Picture above does portray a bit of resemblance, if mixed up with a bit of this: :P

    The frame is for sale if anyone is interested.

    These pictures are in school - not an open prison...
