firstly i totally suck at taking photographs, secondly i have to keep the thing in my bedroom coz wimbledon village has a higher crime rate than moss side! thirdly im in love with carbon fibre again

its all part of my summer get fit quick scheme, I used to mountain bike loads but had all my old mounts nicked (10k's worth at 17 years old put me off it in a big way!), cant belive how light things are nowadays.

anyway just thought I'd post something a wee bit different.

brucey034 · 14 Jul 2008 at 22:57

Very very nice bike, got a normal kula myself (wishes for a supreme)
Is that a cateye single shot light ? I ordered one today, how are they ?

<3 Kona bikes. I have a 2002 Lavadome with a few minor mods (namely a slightly better than stock headset, Clubroost bars, Manitou Skareb Platinum forks and an Easton seatpost) - great bike, but I need some more road friendly tyres for it as I mainly use it to commute.

Yours looks like a cracking bike.

nah although im sure i could, used to build and true all my wheels back int he day, still amazed at the weight (or lack thereof) of the wheels, I used to have tyres that weighed more!

the light is awesome, its only the cheaper rechargable version, im not a huge night rider so couldnt justify £100+ on a light

A mountain bike in London?

Yay

I wish I could get back into mountain biking. Up here in the country so many places to take advantage of.

I wouldn't say they are good value for money. They are overpriced generally,compared to the competition.

That is a REALLY nice bike though!

you seem to be missing pedals.

6thElement · 15 Jul 2008 at 01:50

They're either CB 2Ti or 4Ti Eggbeaters, knowing Will they're the latter

Killa_ken · 15 Jul 2008 at 02:27

Lower the seat all the way, it looks so stupid that high. Gotta keep it a low rider :cool:

They probably use those special cycling shoes with the clips on the underside of them.

Nah, higher is more comfy, plus you can get more power efficiently knackering yourself less!
