    I can imagine this looks even better in the flesh. Good job.

    hiya,

    yeah it does look better in the flesh, i got some seriously bad shadows in that pic...

    rides beautifully compared to the aly fuji bike i've upgraded from, and compared to the 2300/sora stuff that had on it, the cube is from another world :) i'm getting a bike fit tomorrow, some hopefully i'll be all set for a summer of sportives.

    would just like to say the lads at winstanleys in wigan were really helpful, and would recommend highly

    Hi

    Great looking bit of kit there.

    What is the cassette range on this?

    Thanks

    Hiya,

    Its got a 11-28 cassette on it, with a compact 50/34 crank.

    Its plenty of range for me..

    hehe,

    its funny looking back at that photo now. The seat has gone up loads and the bar has been dropped virtually all the way down, with just a small space under the stem now. I'm loving it, but i can't stop looking at some campy zondas, think they'd look great on it!

    Just a little update, now happy with position, will prolly get the steerer lobbed off, and have removed the wheel stickers.

    Prolly won't resurrect this thread again, far too many far more exotic bikes on here!

    yeah they're really good value for money, full ultegra bike for £1800 this one, but the next one down is a similar spec less the ultegra crank and with different wheels for £1600
