edited January 2018 in Your road bikes
2013 Felt F95 picked up for £180, added some campag bullet 50s and a fizik arione and at £550 all in its a brilliant bike for the money
Few upgraded things like handlebars, stem and chainset from the last owner and weighs in at 9kg, not bad.
Nothing compared to some of the bikes on here mind.
Excuse the no chain, a new one is on the way and red bottle holder is just a spare I had left over.

    That’s really nice. Wet windy stone wall hat.

    Get rid of the cage, silly outers and chop the rubbish off the stem.

    Gold chain will rock on that.

    Just something nice, simple, plain black. Those ones that SS posted in the Arundel thread will look cool.

    Gold chain will well rock. Buy one. Buy one. Buy one. Buy it now. Buy one. Buy it. Buy it now.

    Ah an F95. The sheer definition of a stalwart in biking terms.

    I really like it - proper frame shape. Be a bit of a tank but it’s well cool.

    Yes.

    I’ll never use Jagwire coloured cables again. Compared to Shimano own brand, they are made of a much harder plastic which doesn’t bend as easily. Eventually they can start to crack where they are bending back and forth a lot ie rear brake cable from shifter to frame.

    I must admit to always using Shimano own cables (inner and outer) - I once shelled out a relative fortune for Gore Pro and was really disappointed.

    For the price of one set of Gore Pro you can get loads of sets of Shimano from the big box at the lbs.

    Naturally Shimano for the Shimano bikes and SRAM inners for the SRAMMers.

    I do like these white / Celeste on my wife’s bike but they are so damn hard to get hold of. Thankfully these are quite bendy.

    Apart from the way they look.

    Modern bikes: black.

    Retro: white.

    Make it so.
