Do your roadie friends like the bike? More importantly, are you keeping up with them now?

Muzza

I like that alot..

I believe its a Discovery Channel Trek 5.9 SL from 2004/2005 era

Actually, my name is Corbyn, how exactly could you vote for anyone if you have pins in your eyes?
You see, this is what tory fundamentalism does to otherwise normal folk!

BTW , have you got a spare XTR M95* chainset, Nicholas?

Re: Re:

FFS Nick, get those bars turned around! Before the fashion police come knocking!

Only Sean Yates can get away with downturned bars!

Looks good other than that mate!

Mikeeeee

What's wrong with them

The logos on them are bang in centre with the stem, am I missing something here
If I spin the bars the levers are going to look like fcuking reindeer antlers sticking up

I took my queue from the catalogue pic... Where should they be then?

here's where I took my queue from, I've looked at a lot of other road bikes and I must admit they are almost parallel in most cases.
