Your machine is meaner than your son's.. & with those two high end bikes are you both now living in the shed having sold the house?:D

I downsized :D:D.

With the AR2, I took off the carbon wheels today and put on the stock wheels that I also got with it. I ain't the first cousin of a cyclist,hadn't cycled in over 20yrs and last Sept. I got a Cannondale. Have been tipping way on that until I came across the AR2. Getting ready for the Tour De Cure in the morning and guess! I'm going out on the Cannondale. I'm not ready for the AR2 just yet, I'd be like a eighty year old driving a Ferrarri around the town.:eek:

The Pinarello is lovely,he's had a few runs on it and is delighted.

I like it, in fact... I like it a lot....

But either that's a HUGE bike or you got a tiny shed

Beautiful bike ... and 'urban decay' backgrounds are all the rage

That wheelset will do ya grand for training, you can get some Camapag Eurus when you reach some training goal, bombproof wheelset with the same dead sexy, 'go faster' looking spoke pattern !!!

Very nice photos- you might want to look at that saddle angle though, making it more level.

Thanks, it's on the list of to-do's along with raising the saddle a bit as my leg isn't fully outstretched when pedalling. Also the fact that I've been on crutches for the past week has hindered me getting out on it. Also the bike is resting up against a wall where the ground has a slight incline which could be throwing your perception off a tad, because actually now that I look at it, it does seem extremely off.

P.S I'm free to take photos of anyone's bike for a small large nominal fee .

that's their fixed spec bikes, i went for this one http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.uk/i/q/CBPXSLPC/sl-pro-carbon-comp which is fully customisable but me being a newbie i kept it all pretty much standard except for the cassette and chain.

there's quite a big price jump between the sram rival and the shimano ultegra let's hope it was worth it (i'll soon find out ).
