Whereabouts are you? I'd be interested in the Kona.

I have a Stumpjumper too, but there are times I fancy just heading up onto the ridgeway on a hard tail. That, and if it's not huge my girlfriend could probably use it and join me on the Stumpjumper.

New wheels went on today, slowly getting it to where I want, powermeter crank soon hopefully.

Then an aero/integrated bar and stem and it will be perfect!

Is it really called FELT.

Strange name for a bike.

Yeah, quite a decent sized brand. I think Trek is more strange for a bike brand tbh

Does yours have the built in down tube storage, and can you fit a full puncture "kit" in?

I could look it up, but, lazy...

I think that’s on the Domane and not the Emonda.

New bike day. Bit of a struggle getting it into the golf. Should have taken the wife's car, but she was getting wet on the coast.

Newly back into cycling and wanted a bike that’d do most things and ended up with this,



Bit more than I wanted to spend but a severe lack of stock coupled with man maths I ended up with something that I’m happy with. Pretty nippy but I think I’ll be changing the saddle before too long and new pedals are on their way!

She’s a beauty. Love the frames on Orbeas. Nice GTi too.

Not expensive nor flashy, and it confuses many local “ATGNI” crowd on their €5k+ steeds as a *ahem* portly 50y.o. passes them smile

(Just cleaned after a 50km ride yesterday.)

Picked up my new Carrera Vanquish today. Not ridden a drop bike since ‘87 so it’s going to take some getting used to. Gears on the brake levers as opposed to the down tube?!?! WTAF....lol
