Having been sat groupset-less for a couple of months due to a house purchase I was finally able to more or less finish my build. My LBS fitted Sram eTap Wifli for me and finished all the other bits off. Shout out to Kinetic Cycles in Hitchin for the good price and free fitting.

Next jobs; bike fit, plain black bar tape and carbon wheels to lose that alloy brake track.

Cosmics for sale?

I've been thinking about selling my cosmics but they are a bit older (although I assume the design is still the same? Carbon 'fairing' on alloy rims with bladed spokes). Let me know if you are interested and you don't go for Mark's....

They are. One of the guys in the bike shop offered me £500 for them though next weekend.

Fair enough, bite his hand off, only £700 new at the moment! I hadn't realised they were still worth so much.

Newly built Tripster V2. Only been out for a quick test run but so comfy compared to the road bike!

Just ordered one of these to replace my 15 year old Specialised Hardrock

With a carbon frame the difference in weight is staggering

Looking forward to having a pedal on the downs

I'd love to try one of these. You aren't near Manchester or Hudds??

New frame swapped in. I'm just waiting for a longer Reverb hose and drop the travel on my forks. Anyone want to buy a Commencal AM V4 frame?

Lovely looking bike.

Personally I would have the saddle and bar tape in black and the cages black so there was one less colour going on.

[Quickmoose]

They 'go' with the text on the bike.
Besiders, black and white aren't colours

I wouldn't change a thing...other than it's ownership...

[Dammit]

I tend to go for white bar-tape for those of my bikes that only get ridden in the spring/summer:

Had a double change around in the shed with both FS and HT swapped, more than happy with both!

I'm on the Wirral so not a million miles away. Welcome to try if your ever in the area.

I have tried to upload this to embed, but cannot seem to do it, why doesn't putting that url between the pic or thumb [/] etc work?

Anyway, bought that the other day, rides well. Canyon Aeroad SLX di2

Thanks for the tech help - god knows why I couldn't manage it!

Ha yes, this was before it was ruined visually by adding two cages.
