You could have taken the wrapping off the back wheel...

If God had meant us to pedal he'd never have let mankind invent engines....

Why use fractions of a horsepower when you can have a hundred odd horsepower doing all the work for you

doogalman · 18-Aug-2006, 16:54

Should you check the rear ride height???

Harv748 · 18-Aug-2006, 17:08

Your quite right....ride height was checked as these piccies where taken as the bike was received from the previous owner.

Good job I checked...i needed to raise the saddle by another 20 mm...I kid ye 'not!

Yeah, nice bike if time-triallings your thing, but it would be even better in red and, more importantly, with proper Italian components, not that stuff from some wannabee Oriental company
