Mountain bike for road use.....

[RecordAceFromNew]

so how much did all the changing and faffing cost approx???

I believe the answer is irrelevant, for the following reason...

wife would kill me if I suggested I might get another bike.....

i suppose - glad i got a man cave and my own bank account, i get what i want after all the bills are covered first.

same goes for mrs jowwy

Probably about half the price I originally paid for the bike itself.... I can only spend about £30-50 a month after bills etc, so this is why I upgraded this bike rather than wait aaaaggggeeessss to save up for a road bike.....
Nearly there, just a Hollowtech 2 Crankset and bottom bracket and a new saddle to go!!! ;O)
Although some of my purchases were bargins!!! The pair of conti tyres were £20 for the pair (folding bead type)
