    Dark grey chainset and that would be perfect.

    MTB - On-One Inbred

    I have no idea what's going on here.

    I love these (have one myself) - my only criticism is I really don't like the PX logo - and I always think their wheels would look better without them!
    Insert bike here:

    I agree, with the wheels the decal can just be peeled off. I went for the silver chainset as it doesn't show the rub marks so much.

    But left the lawnmower out.

    Looking good, do you know what the bike weighs?

    I dont, but want to find out. I heard Tesco sell a suitcase type digital scales thingy. Might try and find one online...

    Yeah i was thinking about one of those things, but ended up weighing mine on the bathroom scales and weighing with me and the bike and subtracting it from my weight :D

    How is it for long rides, I had a SL Pro Sram Red (just before they bumped the prices up) and it was awesome for anything up to about 30 miles after that it was quite uncomfortable, I even swapped out to a Charge spoon saddle with carbon post but still the same after 30 or so miles.

    Lovely bike though
