    That's one long seat post and quite a drop from saddle-bars! Would like to see you positioned on it, I expect you have quite an agressive/aero position?

    Quite deceiving photo angle's I suspect. It feels a very comfortable riding position to me! The handle bar height is 10mm higher then on the ribble that I had, all the other dimensions are identical.
  • Bit of an update on this.

    At the back end of last year, I decided to build my Ribble winter bike up again (decent mud guards) which meant, stripping this down this down. Whilst the frame was stripped of components, I thought I would like to get it painted as the original black paint was beginning to look faded. So off it went...

    As this was now going to be just my summer bike, I began hunting during the black friday / Christmas / January sales and managed to get some good deals on new wheels and groupo. :D

    Anyway the frame came back and it looks absoloutlety stunning, the photos really dont do it justice!

    I'm thinking of having a frame 'refreshed' with a new paint job. Could you confirm who sprayed it and cost?

    It looks really nice by the way!

    Thanks.

    It was Bob Jackson who re-sprayed it - highly recommended. I'll PM you the cost.

    oh nice...
  • The marking on the side of the bearing says 7H x dia. 41.8 x dia. 30.2 x 45 x 45 which means that it is a campagnolo hiddenset rather then a standard integrated.
