    A little unfair to the bike. The bars have been set up wrong, it jars the eye so much it's hard to see past.

    I like the look of the frame.

    I agree the frame is nice, the way the bike has been setup is awful.

    Just a little reminder of this prior warning which I have now repeated in the OP as it would appear that some posters around here seem to believe their own views as to what qualifies for this thread are more important than those of others

    Oh for fcuks sake. Beautiful bike, why the half naked woman in a sexually suggestive position behind it? Man alive that bugs the bejesus out of me. Equality just took a massive nosedive. Argh :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    There's a woman in that photo?

    Eh. She looks like that bike would be totally wasted on her, no power and clothing that would shame a Triathlete ;).

    [Genuinemode] I've never thought of road cycling as being the preserve of daily sport readers so it seems pretty incongruous to have a non cyclist model lounging around behind the bike[/genuinemode]

    Oops, thought it was a triathlete doing some stretches.

    Very nice but just looking at the wheels and shouldn't the single red spoke be at the valve to show where the valve is? Maybe I'm wrong but I thought that was the purpose of the single outstanding coloured spoke?
