Bought it from Bianchi Bikes in Wrexham for £650,meant to be £750, the very nice chap who runs the shop let me have £100 discount, threw in some SPD MTB pedels for free along with some other bits and bobs, makes the pain of having my last bike nicked a bit more bareable. Today I took my new bike across to Delemere Forest to brake it in and to take it for a good blast, luckily the rain had stopped so didnt get too wet but still got nice and dirty, all good fun. Changing from a triple to a double and not having the same rear group set made the cycling harder work than I'm used to but should see me getting fitter in the long run. New bike is a great ride very comfortable and look forward to smashing out the miles. Have fun and stay safe wherever you may be cycling. Sean |
