Hi All

Been a few weeks since I was last here, been out on the new bike!

Apologies if the attachment doesnt work, help me if it doesnt!

The bike is based on a Specialized Comp with Cosmic Elites, Dura Ace/Ultegra mix etc, I love it!....

Nice one, Bike looks the Biz, Wheelset is the dogs ! Do you know what the bike weighs ?
I was looking at a very similar model at the Bike Depot in Chester, you probably know it well. But for better or for worse I got a deal on a Cannondale instead.
I suppose its all personal but I much prefer the Specialized zebra stripe finish on your bike than the new understated specialized paintwork.
Dont expect you'll be riding this weekend its due to hurl down up our way.

No idea what it weighs but feels very light! Especially compared to my last bike, a Sirus Tourer.
I am gutted re the weather, just started snowing on the way to work and worse to come for the weekend!
My mate just bought the all black Allez model, looks boring compared to mine, my opinion of course!!!

Yep its pretty much set for the weekend. I am in Rhyl, so we are sending it your way !! In actual fact on hindsight it was the allez elite I was looking at, and that felt very light. But not as light as the comp with all the kit you have on.
