    Wow. That is an amazing bike in my opinion. Realy like the paint job, only thing that bothers me at all are the wheels. I think it would look better with thicker rims. You have yourself a very nice bike indeed.

    Thanks guys ,as for the rims I went for low weight as opposed to deeper profile as frame is not the lightest :)

    Very nice Victor - great groupset and frame and I think the wheels look very well.

    If it was me, I would change the Shimano made pro handlebar/stem for Deda and add an extra two links to the chain!

    They certainly aren't the lightest - but I've not seen on broken/ cracked unless heavily crashed...
    Well made

    generally not fan of some of the pegoretti paint-jobs but this one is nice and simple

    ^^ nice paint but rims are too deep for skinny frame tubing.

    This looks more balanced.

    Like a skinny woman with ginormous knockers, some people like it but to me it looks unnatural and unbalanced :-)

    I have been planning on getting back into cycling for a few months but with work and finding it difficult to find time to go for a run, it was put on hold.

    I decided to take advantage of the bike to work scheme and I got a Giant Defy 1. I know people see them as being to common but I have to start somewhere :)

    Time to start building up the km's

    Nice frame but that saddle has a bad case of Brewers' droop.

    Any opinions on this? Was a strip and respray/build I did last winter when I was bored. It's a very comfy Reynolds 531 but a bit on the heavy side.
