    Lovely looking bikes. Does the Bender Fender on the back of the Reaction work?
  • Mrlee it does kind of work if you go through the odd puddle but if its a wet day e.t.c then no you will still get marks on youre back!

    Does look a lot neater than a big fin hanging off the back. I have the Butt Fender on my Cotic at the moment. It stops my butt getting wet, that's about it.

  • Mrlee its more for looks but yeah the fins ruin the bikes looks in my opinion. Well im 6foot1 and the 20 inch frame was slightly small for me the Scr Elite is a 22 inch is perfect, Cube frame sizes are smaller than most other brands but there stems are like cranes at 120mm, that will all change soon and will be replaced with 90mm along with a whole load of other stuff

    Love the colour scheme but what are you going to use it for? Commuting? Those front lights seem to be surplus otherwise?

    Those superstar wheels are gorgeous. Really like the colour scheme you've got going on - very bling!

  • The bike is used to get to a from local places and the odd ride here and there on a path beside the river thames sometimes through the woods nothing extreme, dont really ride off road at night so the lights are fine for basic road use

    What's wrong with half the parts? Bling fine, but what's wrong with an XTcrankset?
  • well the bike was purchased mainly just for the frame, the brakes weren't great and one was leaking near the lever, the shifters were knackered the crankset is fine it is worn but it has a few scratches so i have ordered some raceface cranks which is the final addition to the bike :)
