    Love it. I have those wheels on my shopping list. How do you find them? Free speed at 25 mph +

    Lovely bike, credit to you.

    Like the "Celeste" bits on the seat post and stays, wonder if a Arione with a similar coloured strip might look cool.

    Looks proper "Jack the Biscuit" :D

    Lovely looking bike. Those wheels really suit it.

    I prefer the white front end on Supergoose's to my own but, having seen the blue in person, I went for the red/white. I'd have some Michelin Pro Races in duck egg blue to match on that. :wink:

    A lovely bike. I have the red, white and black one but its still lying in bits after I dismantled it to send the frame back to ATB when the white lacquer turned a yellow colour. I'll get some pics up once its put back together.

    One quick question - how did you get the bike to balance like that for the photograph???

    Ah, Photoshop!

    Yep the one in the picture was replaced by ATB for the same reason. It had done around 5k when I took that pic. It was replaced with a 2010 frame which I broke. So Im looking at a new frame at the minute. Having had a couple of titanium bikes I cant decide whether to go titanium or carbon though. Still looking.

    I ummed and aahed over those wheels as I loved my carbon clinchers...

    Still not sure if I made the right choice.

    Looks good, like the colours.

    Your replacement frame, crash damage or did it fail?

    I've a 2009 frame after my '08 suffered with jaundice.

    No mate, I'd like to say it broke under my ferocious sprinting power but it was damaged in transit. Insurance paid out so I'm looking for something else atm. Id like one of those Dogmas but computer says no! :|
