very nice...makes me want to take the day off and go cycling

most likely a seatpost and maybe one or two other goodies....

I can't say that the scale I used was very accurate....It had seen better days. The seatpost is standard issue Scott and the handlebars are standard. I might be able to shave off a lot of weight there...the 10kg's on the scale included my saddle bag which consists of tool, spare tube and two bombs. I think the naked bike would come in well under 10kg's. will be looking at the seatpost later on..maybe christmas. The stem is also standard scott. I guess if I had to replace all those goodies I should be able to shave off another 300grams.

my cycling partner has the polished alloy version....I am very happy with mine....size 58, easton circuit wheels and 105 groupset .....a whole 10kg's...suppose it is not to bad.

thanks velo.....were you at least able to find some that do fit??

bike looks very nice.....just like jules said....maybe one day you can buy a Scott..congrats!!!!!

the 105 compact chainring is also a brand new....can't wait till tomorrow AM....

Got these on Friday afternoon KCNC mbaymike2008-08-09 11:27:50

Vittoria is good.....They have been around for quite a while....I prefer conti's though

how often do you need to change the batteries????

the 595 i like......i like all of them except the 596....it looks broken

why is it that as soon as some people start posting on a thread the whole thread goes awry and off topic. the hubber wants to know if they should upgrade.................

Very nice....welcome to the hub

SCOTT !!!!!!!! Scotta be the best

excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The climb out of mosselbay is called "de bakke bult"...if you not quite fit you can replace the second "b" with a "k" and there you have it. this is my local training ground. ...ps...did you guys tackle the hill on the way to george or not? 6km in length!!!!! Kaaimans ???? if so ' date=' ja. we were worried about the traffic on this section but it turned out ok. the trucks are going just a few k's faster than you up the climb. i know there is an alternative route out of mossel bay in between the houses but no-one knew of the exact roads to take.[/quote'] kaaimans is between wilderness and george....de bakke is when you leave hartenbos on the way to mosselbay.....it's the last hill before you hit a looooooong flat out of town and onto the highway in the direction of CPT.

julle moet maar kom vakansie hier by ATKV jong....die paaie hier behoort dan aan die fietsryers...skoonma het ook 'n woonstel wat 6 mense kan slaap....as julle nou bespreek kan julle volgende jaar lekker holiday hier.

hagar mens kan nie anders nie...die klimme hier is nogal lekker oefening en met die see hier en die natuurskoon is dit altyd lekker om hier te ry...veral glentana om. was julle al hier gewees om te ry of te vakansie.

KLEIN BRAK HOOGTE.....when you do the mosselbay george mosselbay trip this is a killer. comes in after about 80km of rolling and steep climbs. after klein brak you get de bakke....see my previous post....de bakke then becomes de kakke as you have completed about 93km's...but all worth it. mbaymike2008-07-29 13:59:43
