Indeed I have.
Running a small independent business will change your view on many, many things.

I thought all you lot had kids now?
The last thing you should be doing is buying crap you don’t need for the hell of it. By the time they’re our age they’ll be living elbow deep in the junk we’ve thrown away due to endless consumerism.

Fuck Black Friday. Go support an independent bike shop and put your money in the pocket of a real person if you actually need bike stuff.....Which I highly doubt.

Get a Genesis. They are very good VFM. Anyone who says they are shit is one of two people:

A) someone who has never ridden one.

B) an elitist cunto type that wastes money on badly made and overpriced crap from Italy.

Pays pretty shit tho.

I’d give you a job.

I do studio tours for £100.
They last about 3 minutes.

One of these days some journalist somewhere will get my name right....

Thanks guys!!
Tried to do something a bit different to you’re average red white and blue champ bike.

Current project:

Buy something nice, put the Roubaix in the garage until winter. When winter comes put the nice bike in the garage and get the Roubaix out.

Most bikes labelled as ‘all rounders’ are generally crap at most things, and good at none. The magical perfect all year round lightweight/ fast/comfortable/ practical master of all trades bike you want does not exist, and probably never will because bike companies will be shooting themselves in the foot by making one.

If you want full mudguard calability ou are limiting yourself to ugly bikes, full mamil wagons and weird middle of the road gravel/winter bike things like the Specialized Diverge.

Or get a Volare Disc. Great bikes.

2018 Tarmac SL5

Good deal. Could prolly find it cheaper with some mild googling.

Truth.

That bike is well gross.

Classic example of why good mechanics cost good money.

You get what you pay for with skilled work like this.

Maybe they are sending it to you piece by piece?

Is that a Deda post?
They painted the whole post, mounting surfaces and all! That’s fucked up.

Hahaha. Mad LOLZ.

I was really happy with myself as I thought it rhymed really well, then I wrote the label out and realised it doesn’t rhyme at all.

Wahey!

You seemed upset that someone else in the office had one before you.

Hopefully champagne beige will be in fashion by then.

£10 says you don’t get it before the classic ‘sorry, Italy is currently closed for summer’ email.

Even Robin Mather could have built it by now.

At least twice as much as it would have cost you yesterday.....

But yeah, painting a Shiv won’t be cheap. That’s a complex job. Shoot me an email if you are serious, but you’ll
Be looking at around £1k, and that’s with a discount.
