seriously! how many bar-ends do you need?



There is a guy at work who cycles to work everyday on this monstrosity. He has basically bought every piece of bling kit he could afford and put it ALL onto this Orange P7 frame. (notice the Full XT groupset, Pace forks, Easton bars, Brooks swift saddle, Thomson finishing kit, Candy SL's...the list goes on)

It can be clearly seen that putting as many fancy bits of kit as you can afford onto your bike obviously doesn't mean it's going to be nice to look at, to ride...

Oh yeah, and remember don't bother cutting down the steerer tube- take up that excess space with loads over-priced Hope carbon spacers!!

Riding wit my dad

Superb day had, we rode just over 50miles in and around deepest Ayrshire. We had a few laughs, the weather was great, the cycling was good...what else can you ask for?

sadly, i had to come back to paint the house, but with good memories.


Here's a pic of me sporting my free Gore top and my dad flying the flag for team Banesto...Indurain eat your face off!

Still had to sand down the edges at this point
