Well, I joined the tribe today... nice to be able to change gears on the hilly bits (I've been commuting on a SS) and it's slightly lighter than my old Carrera Crossfire! Took a bit of getting used to but it's a joy to ride, so much more responsive than any bike I've ridden before... can't wait to give it another whirl! ;-)

I'd just like to state that I am VERY jealous of the new 5A, especially since it has the new paddle shifters and better colour scheme.

That's not Chew Valley Lake by any chance?

Absolutely, next time I'm doing river maintenance I can knock one up from fallen trees with about 60 seconds of work with a chainsaw ... all sizes available, send me a PM to order .

Hi
Lovin my tri3 but a bit unsure of the brakes. I can't seem to get a good pull on them unless I'm in a proper race crouch. I slow down OK ish but not sure how is come off in an emergency stop. Should I move the levers or get a pair that go on the horizontal bar?

Hi stu if it a reach problem then you can adjust the lever distance with the different size shims you should of got with the bike.

Thanks I'll check that out, but its more a leverage angle thing. I'll have a play.

Very nice - but I can't help noticing that it's not red.
