I’m not a Fre…oh wait, shit.
In fine form Adam I see
Actual lol.
TC: kinda wanna punch people who quote the rules.
Lots of people in my club do, as a semi-serious thing.
This.
Time for a new club?
No, it makes me laugh more than anything. I can’t be too hung up on this, or I’d live in a cave
The rule is don’t be a dick. Everything else is just a preference.

I really don’t give a fuck about the rules. I just can’t stand white bartape, ever.
i like white bartape. it’s like hotel sheets. you know it shouldn’t feel nice, but it does.
Yeah there are many situations where white tape is acceptable. Track bikes a good example.
Another good example is whenever it’s paired with white hoods and a fluro orange S-Works 
Fuij Altamira 1.3 with full dura ace 9000. Mostly stock stuff but I changed the saddle over to an Arione and the bars to some 3T Ternova’s. I’ll get some proper cages soon, and if I have enough dough I’ll swap the wheels over to some Mavic Ksyrium Elites or something of the like for the rest of the junior road season. Saddle to bar drop is roughly around 190mm, BB to saddle top is 820mm, and it weigh’s in at 7kg’s.
Nice Isaac but don’t waste your money upgrading to Mavics, those wheels are fine, wait and get propped hand builts or race wheels.
im really feelin 9000, nice one mate.
Nice, 9000 is good kit.
Also, make that excess steerer tube useful, mount your garmin to the top of it.
2013 Focus Izalco Pro 3.0
First carbon road bike for me. Took it for a maiden ride yesterday and loving the feel of the frame.
Need to change the white tape though and awaiting some road pedals.
My second roadie and first full carbon.
Focus Izalco Team SL 4.0 2013
XL size.
Had it for about a month now and absolutely love every minute on it.
No carbon here, decade old aluminium.
Stripped all the paint to save weight, I guess the aesthetics are a pleasant byproduct of that.
Need to be as light as possible for this year’s Geelong-Launceston.
This is what it looked like before:
Mostly Ultegra 6500 but 105 brakes.
