And wifey's bike has a set of Fox 100rl's and some awesome Superstar / Alexrims wheels  if anyone hasnt heard the noise of these hubs, prety impresive, must have a thousand pickup teeth. virtually no movement between teeth. http://youtu.be/m2rsnOv_Uuo?list=UUwgAr ...

That force is looking pretty good VW. I like those wheels. And loads of pickup teeth sounds awesome. Wish mine was like that! Might get my bikes on this thread soon. |

New commuter.... but I think it may find it's way on the Ridgeway and the Lee Valley loop so I think it's allowed in here Just need to get some shorter chain ring bolts so I can remove the middle ring. Cut down the steerer when I’m sure it’s right. Struggling with the idea of fitting mudguards and a rack....Just a bit too pretty to spoil.

It's a Cotic Roadrat.... https://www.cotic.co.uk/product/roadrat Comes in a rather nice Duck Egg Blue but thought the green was a bit more stealthy for Tottenham and Hackney commuting
