I like building bikes 'with a difference' and this one is a flat bar road bike built on a beautiful SAB 575 Racing carbon/aluminium frame with a Shimano 1x9 Deore groupset. Isaac forks, FSA Gossamer brakes and RS 10 wheels complete the package. Total build cost is just over £400, with everything new or very nearly new.
This gives me a 12 to 34 cassette range with a 42 tooth front sprocket and is great for really hilly tarmac roads. A slightly niche bike, but I think it looks ace and at 9.4kg it flies along quickly and climbs very nicely.

The government announced this week that they were going to pay your GP £55 to diagnose memory problems like this. 0 -
