    How does that work? You swap your wheels for summer in the Alps but that leaves you with no wheels?

    Don't be mean.
    That's a great looking bike, please share pics of it with new wheels at the top of an alp or two.

    I'll keep those wheels for bad weather and winter training. I'm gonna buy a pair of light wheels, and maybe a pair of deep carbon tubular for races later.

    Hope you don't mind me adding my ALR6 to your post, Matt black doesn't quick pop as much as yours esp with my poor background!!

    ^ Looks like he's already got his 'summer in the alps' saddle on ... At least it will be level when going uphill ;) ... Not quite so sure how it will work on tne descents though ...

    Hi Kawaspresso

    What size frame is your ALR?

    Nice looking bike BTW.

    Point taken type:epyt I think the photo angle accentuates it but yes think I will correct that for tomorrow's ride

    It's a 54 frame. I'm moving to Grenoble this summer, I'll see how the bike handle at 100km/h +.
    I already put my black Fisik alliante saddle on it.
    Tim the ALR6 is really nice too :)
