    The brake cables are way too long for my liking (Otherwise i would have put in a bid.)
  • I don't mind the brake cables - I have just bought it so...STOP OGLING MY BIKE!

    Disclaimer: I have not just bought this bike

    Bottle cage is all wrong otherwise I was a "buy it now" certainty.

    42 x 19 lowest gear - real bike. None of those newbie types would be able to ride that with their 'my bike only has a 34 x 30 lowest gear, how can I get over the railway bridge on that' attitudes.

    Too small a frame drattit!

    Also, could you bear with scrubbing gold off the rims every time you brake?
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    I can't decide whether it is stunningly beautiful or way OTT.

    I wonder what funny looks I would get riding a thing like that when I join the lads for a Sunday run.

    That's the second masters I've looked at today, though that's a bit more expensive

    That a lot of money for a collection of drinking straws topped off with a small Chesterfield :) Looks like it would snap in a moderate breeze, never mind somebody sitting on it.

    A Master would be my retro build of choice. I'm looking at a Trek 5200 frame for a winter hack. Priced at £120 - no bids, no watchers. Might offer him some cash if he doesn't sell it. Any experience of them? Oh, forgot - no point asking crudders.

    If I wanted a steel bike with a 6 speed frewheel, shite brakes, weighs a ton, looks crap and has yellow highlights I'd save myself £11000 and buy this:

    Isn't a trek the choice of dentists and drug cheats?

    I am in the waste management bizness. It's only for a winter hack but it isn't Italian either.

    Is it Balotelli's bike? Ugly as sin (the bike - make your own mind up about the bloke :( )
    Plus, as Pross correctly pointed out, I wouldn't be able to turn the pedals. :oops:
