Guest Iron Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 This is my new Single speed and my solution to the new toll gates that are going to affect me to work and back , rode it today and what a jol.Also saves my current two race bikes ( Mtb and Road ) from getting hammered in the traffic. got it from my very good mate Eldron.
DaLoCo Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Stupid boast.... I will qualify: Stupid because you would have to use it every day for a good few years before the saving in toll fees catch up to the cost of the bike Boast because, damn, it looks nice, and the stupid tollgate excuse is completely negated by the beauty of the machine

LeTurbo Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Good idea, Iron! You also save gym fees, petrol, oil, water, maintenance, time, the carbon footprint, your sanity ...

ROV after 6.48 months, that is a good investment.
DaLoCo Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 ROV? or ROE? Uhhh....ooops Actually meant ROI - Return on Investment
Guest Iron Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Bawhaha Im a dumb ass , i was thinking ROV = return on value . stupid me!
Stretch Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) or ROI? ok you beat me to it Edited March 7, 2011 by Stretch
Eldron Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Ahhh he's looking good Iron. The new stem, bars and white highlights certainly make the most of his looks. Here is his replacement
Stretch Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 eldron - you seem to go through bikes faster than i go through underwear! no white rabbits sneaking into the picture this time?
Guest Iron Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Ahhh he's looking good Iron. The new stem, bars and white highlights certainly make the most of his looks. Here is his replacement Aah , looks better each time i see it, when my SS grows up he wants to be a 29" SS.
Guest Iron Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 eldron - you seem to go through bikes faster than i go through underwear! no white rabbits sneaking into the picture this time? Dude , Let me tell you that I had to beat Eldron with a stick to sell me his old one. but he is happy now as he has more hanging space for his new steed.
Eldron Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Dude , Let me tell you that I had to beat Eldron with a stick to sell me his old one. but he is happy now as he has more hanging space for his new steed. I just love bicycles. Parting with the old ones is hard! Fortunately I know the Raleigh has a good home with a fine owner I buy bikes for two reasons - to ride and to ogle. Some get ued and abused on a daily basis - some hang up on the rack and give me pleasure of ownership. Like the TT bike - man that thing rocks - not many oppurtunities to use them but I love the clean lines....next up is another track bike. All the money I save on not having kids gets spent on bicycles
