Mampara' date=' mainly Westdene, they're the official 'dale dealer in town.

Looking forward to the SRAM, heard lots of good things about it.

Is it the frame that's been standing on the glass counter? If it is, you must just whipe my finger prints and drool off it first.

 

I'm going there just before five this afternoon. Will take it for a ride before you get there.

Very similar, but not the one on the counter, mine was standing in the back, in her box oh my word that sounds bad

Oh boy, just when I started to drool over the flagship red/black Barloworld Cannondale, they go and supply Liquigas with this butt ugly SillySix!!  Glad I did not get one of the (now old) Red/Black or Silver/black Cannondale SuperSixes!!

What outfit (bar the Liquigas) could ever match this?

Just got a new 2007 Giant Advanced Team earlier this week. Basically the T-Mobile paint scheme, except with blue replacing the pink. Blue for a boy's bike, pink for all the girls left in T-mobile after Vino, Klodi, Zabel, and occasional cyclist Ulle left.

Now to see whether a new bike can make up for lack of training in the Fast One tomorrow...

nice one MWNN - how does she ride?  and the SRAM?

 

 

 

Thanks doc. Took her out this morning for the protest ride, very very impressed. SRAM works great, shifting very clear and precise and I am able to keep my Shimano cluster on my 404.

 

Only thing I have against the SRAM is that its quite difficult to take the back wheel out, the derailleur keeps on blocking the wheel. But that's about as bad as it gets

 

Crux should place some pics on Monday

I subscribe to the Cervelo school of though that each frame should have the same seat tube angle. Annoys me when the seat angle slacks too much on larger frames.

 

 

I don't believe that they are correct in that philosophy.

fortunately theres planty of choice in the market..
I rode the giant tcr0 for a few years' date=' didn't like it at all, the back wheel kept stepping out on the rough stuff and the ride is not nice, the fitting is ok but the CERVELO R3 kicks it's ass........in weight and ride comfort.[/quote']

 

Funny that, you have to be one of the few people to find the ride on the Giant Unpleasant. Most likely the set up was all wrong.

 

Perhaps the R3 is better for YOU but theres plenty of discussion on other forums around the lackof longevity in Cervelo

Just got my TCR Advanced ISP build up and went for the first ride.Although its a 2006 model this is one mean machine.I never knew what responsiveness meant until after my ride on this machine

My buddy just bought this frame. Should I still be seen in his company?
