Built by Charley who used to be the frame builder for Henry Burton back in the days when they still made their own frames.

Lynx was the name he used for a small number he built as one offs.

Here's my Boardman SC Comp today enjoying it's first ride in the snow to work.Rode it on the factory fit road tyres which was not a problem until i wanted to turn or hit the churned up snow but at least i kept topside up.It's got Crud mudguards fitted which do a pretty good job of keeping the Crud off.

Bit blurry early morning outside work

Used and abused i'm afraid ! Cannot believe what a dream this bike is especially not having to use the brakes as much due to being fixed.The snow and goo have melted now and left a nasty grey mark on everything,better get the oily cloth out !!

Porsche Bolton - I studied Spanish at the Instituto Cervantes with two fellas from there a few years back. Can't remember their names. One was a sales manager I think.

Introducing my latest acquisition "Mr Woody". An SE lager in wood grain which will be my going to work and visiting the Chinese Supermarket bike.

Once I've got used to it and everything is bedded I'll flip the back wheel and start riding it properly.

Goldie,

It's nice and stiff, being used to drops the cowhorns mimic a comfortable 'on the hoods' riding position that I'm used to, and the whole thing is well put together. I have now removed to toeclips as they were a bit ropey, I'll put a set of SPDs on when I next get to Decathlon (cheap shoes that will do for commuting). Got it from Chain Reaction at £200 off because it's a '10 model and they had it on clearance. I'm very happy with it.

Might get some blue tyres eventually, not sure if thats a bit 'overkill' with the blue though. And yes i know the Hope Vision 1 is on upside down, i prefer it like that!

That blue is brilliant, I think tyres will work well.
I'm with you on the under-bar mounted lights, they seem to jiggle about a lot less that way.
