I can see it !

What's the seat post? I'm looking for one with a set-back like that.

 

[angeleye]

it came from ribble i believe and i think it was under £30 too

Looks terrific, done your first ride on it yet?

 

[angeleye]

yup, done the 15 mile commute on it today, such a smooth ride and an amazing difference to the damocles , seems to take all the bumps and nasty bits of road collect them in the frame curl them into a spring and chuck them out the back as a bit of extra zing, seriously nice ride, fast without feeling fast, so hard to describe, just wooooooooooow,

Can you specify a ti fork, or carbon the only option (I'm assuming the fork is carbon)?

 

[angeleye]

i got the forks from chain reaction, only the frame came from planet x, can't say ive seen many ti forks around

 

[jonathanw]

awesome looking machine......many serious miles yet to come, me thinks

You commuted on it? Your weather must be better than mine (not hard)

When is your first long ride planned for? tomorrow maybe

 

[angeleye]

weathers pretty good down here , cold but sunny, probably be a few weeks before i can get out for a longer ride, general commute this time of year is on the single speed but thought i'd treat myself today

Looks like the Tifosi/Bontrager/unbranded/loads of other brands cheap (not to say its bad) carbon seatpost with an alloy clamp. I have one laying around somewhere in a bits box.

Looks great.

Understated, but very smart. Won't rust/melt etc

 

[Wades]

Nice. Very understated.
