Built this last year, my first carbon bike, made a few changes over that time, but thought I'd now post it up, Beone have now apparently gone bust, so might not see many of these around!
I built it 'on the cheap', it's 2011 frame I picked up from a CRC clearance sale, some of the other components I've bought second hand or poached off my winter bike. The red looks a bit pale in the photos, in real life it's a lovely fire engine red.

Some of you might criticize the mix of alloy and carbon and the mishmash of components, but I'm happy with it. :D

    Enjoy this :) Hope you don't break two of 'em like I did ;) (not a criticism of the bike, just my luck!)

    Hi, yes I've seen your previous posts and the experiences of your broken Beone frames, that was after I had bought mine :D
    I've ridden over 1000 miles on mine now, and touchwood no cracks!

    Hehe - yours is lovely, I agree. As I said, one of my frames had an issue but the second problem I had was fully the fault of the car that hit me so can't blame the bike :) Enjoy every mile matey!
