Good work! I also ride 165mm cranks so make a 53 look big, 58, looks massive!!!

My mate has just started working for them, apparently they only have two permanent staff in the UK.

I assumed the place in Chessington was literally a distribution centre.

I thought that any aftersales was handled by the factory first?

This is my current bike, a Wilier GTR. Had it just over a year now and managed a couple of upgrades so it's full Ultegra now and conti gp tyres.

Just bought this, my eighth bike for £40!! it had been ridden once. Pumped the tyres up, adjusted the saddle! and sorted out a sticky rear derailleur and it rides a treat.

Only wanted a cheap 'nickable' pub bike, it's almost too nice for what I wanted smile

The only thing I know about Lewes is The Dripping Pan, having made the trip down a couple of times as an away fan. What an odd little stadium that is. More chance of a cheese-rolling contest than a pitch invasion from the north terrace...

Some N+1 has been applied.. another Cannondale, this time a Synapse Carbon Disc in a very subtle colour.

The Bianchi Infinito is off the road at the moment waiting for replacement forks due their global recall so just bought a Canyon Endurance CF SLX8.0 Disc for winter/wet weather duties. Not quote got the wow factor of the Bianchi but looks a pretty good piece of kit and was £900 off in the sale so seemed a bit of a no brainer

Dunno - the Canyons look lovely.

I did the Rapha Manchester > London last Sunday, loads on Canyons and they all looked lovely.
