What wheels are they?
foto vergeten Henk!
Flippin eck that's tidy...
But for full points, please can we have a proper drive side photo in big ring and small cassette cog, cranks lined up with chainstays and without bottles against a neutral background...
Very nice clean look. What group set did you upgrade from?
Super stealth look. Very nice bike sir!
indeed, isn;t that what we are about, being able to afford what we want ?
I rode it a couple of days ago on a 50 mile and how jeez the EPS is fantastic. Shimano may be just as good but the thumb lever is so damn good.
I've got them as a birthday gift from my wife. They're incredibly fast and roll beautifully with no flex when putting power on them. I do a lot of my riding on crappy roads, and they dampen most of the road noise. Also, my climbing speed improved a lot with them. The only caveat is poor braking power with the provided brake pads. But that's easily fixable by installing some Swissstop Black Princes which make them stop just like aluminium rims. All in all, I'm very happy with this wheel set and I highly recommend them.
Shimano wh-7700
Previous gen dura ace wheel set...so pretty nice
Finally had time. Not a complete neutral background.

Its supplied with Sram Red, but I went down the dream build option that they offer... Only completed a 40 mile club run so far but smiled from ear to ear the whole time.
Only ridden the ultremos - but I have a set of Ones on order. I've had one pothole puncture and one thorn puncture. They are not a winter tyre but they are pretty fantastic and wear very well. Highly recommend.

My Trek Madone 6.9
62cm frame, Dura-Ace drivetrain, Ultegra 6800 di2 front/rear mech & shifters, Look Keo Blade 2 pedals, Cosmic C40 wheels.
Enjoy

MINT! What a beast!
Focus Cayo Evo, my first proper road bike.
Bought in January this year and, (incase the wife reads this) jewellery excepted, the best thing I have ever bought.

Important milestone in Son's Chinarello Maddog's life - she has just 'officially' covered 10,000 miles without any major hitch. Yep, she's had tyres, brakes and chains in that time but as promised (a couple of years ago) here is a photo. It did Morzine run this summer and still rides like a dream. Son will never sell it and has commented that he will ride it until it falls apart - it's not happened yet and for the initial cost of the build that is an important milestone, 0.083p per enjoyable mile.
Regards,
Trikeman.

My recently purchased Rossin road bike, believed to be circa 1980, the original downtube gear control is now in the levers with Campy Chorus gear set. Likely to be using this in the summer/dry, currently using my new Forme Calver CX sport, great for commuting.

My Cannondale Synapse 2013 (I think!) 61cm frame that carried me wonderfully with no punctures, problems or mechanicals during all the training for and during LEJOG this summer. Triple chainset on it that was needed inCornwall.
Then, after riding over my dropped water bottle, 5 miles from home a couple of weeks ago, a spoke broke!
I've also out in my Trek 7.3FX hybrid that I use for commuting. 25inch frame for my 6ft 4 self. A good bike, fairly quick but not as good as the Synapse!

My honest little Trek 1.1 - first road bike!
Started cycling this year following rehab for a broken wrist (no contact sport allowed) and this thing has taken me a good couple of thousand miles so far.
Changed out the saddle (I know, rules - the only one I really pay attention to is Rule V) for a bargain cut-out number from PlanetX, there's a saddlebag, and an ass-saver. That's about it really!
Pic taken at the weekend at Threipmuir Reservoir on a 100km loop around Edinburgh.

My new S-Works Venge. Sorry about it facing the wrong way and the saddle bag! Full Dura-Ace Di2 and some Chinese specials for the wheels.

Here's my 2015 Cannondale Synapse Disc 105 - only done 20 or so miles on it yet but it's been bought to get me fit and around the 75 mile Tour De Mon sportive in August next year!
First post.. and first road bike. Bought in March this year, done 1500 miles including my first century last weekend
Trusty 8 speed drivetrain, upgraded to Claris shifters as the thumb buttons were driving me crazy and Fulcrum Racing Quattro wheels.

KTM Revelator with 105/Microshift/Ultegra
Trek District
Giant TCR SL (Alu)
My newly restored to functionality BMX - Curtis Motocross 2000. Rode it today. Felt old!

Specialised Allez Elite 2014, Mavic Aksium wheels, 105 shifters, rear cassete and deraillieur.
Specialised Cirrus Elite 2014 for commuting to work, only change from standard is Schwalbe Marathon tyres, plus the mudguards, rack panniers and lights.
Here is my best bike. I think it looks kinda neat. Frame is a Kuota Kharma fitted with Ultegra and RS80 C50 wheels. Rubber is Conti GP 4000S. Saddle is Fizik Arione, naturally. Bars and stem are Easton EC70 and EA90.
Yes I know the black red and white colour scheme might be a bit overdone but I don't care when it's this well done.
