So for all intents and purposes, it is a two-piece crank after all... Very interesting. Makes you wonder why they sell a Dura Ace BB separately with an axle. I suppose it's for retro-fitting to other cranks or something...

EDIT: Bugger - no they don't sell a separate BB with an axle. Wonder what happens if you bugger your axle though - new Dura Ace cranks sir?

i'm a bit disappointed with that dura-ace group - don't like the curvy styling too much.

Slack chain

Looks like last year's XTR, especially the cranks.

Very nice

okay while the colour combination may not suit everyone, that is really nice especially the colour coded Brooks (I think?) saddle.

It looks like a San Marco Regal colour coded for a Bianchi to me.

P.S. I agree it's nice though.

it has a nice stance, which is for me what it's all about. character.

sorry, couldn't resist...

those hubs look nice, but couldnt you just buy a replacment set of their sealed bearings and put them in to a system ex hub and get the same result?

hub bodies transfer the forces different. phil hubs have a real solid feel through them compared to system x ;)

i didnt realise that, i thought they were all pretty much standard apart from the bearings, thanks.

I didn't read their claims or garbage. I just liked the look of them.

Just took retail delivery (near FSA HQ) of the new FSA Carbon Track cranks. I have DA rings, otherwise it comes with a new design FSA ring. And no more slipping spider. Total weight 560g as pictured.

Nice !! That's about 95g lighter than a Sugino 75 + Zen ring.

If you want real lightness I have a pair of Stork Power Arms for sale - 310g (without ring).

I don't know if these have been posted. Probably have...

I honestly think that's the most beautiful bike I ever seen.

Really??! It's fuckin ugly, looks like a Bianchi Pista with psoriasis!

Fuck Bianchi Pistas

it's a stunner alright, but most beautiful? I think not.

most beautiful? I think not. Both of the wheels are the same size for a start, and neither of them are an aerospoke.

:D

ASM you are so hardcore.

Sadly not Tynan. I went past my old school the other day, and overheard 2 young lads conversing:

'Oh Johnny do you remember that time that you offered Mr. Smith a high-five and he declined?!'
'Oh why yes Sandeep, what a square!'

That's actually word-for-word. Sums up my upbringing quite nicely, what-o'!

Sandeep? is that even a name?

...no. I just made it up. It's definitely not a fairly common name on the subcontinent. :)

What is a grammar school? In Scotland we have public (comprehensive) and private (public). I went to the latter. Very posh me...

My school.

'Oh Johnny do you remember that time that you offered Mr. Smith a high-five and he declined?!'
'Oh why yes Sandeep, I stabbed him up!'

Yeah, i'm so used to hearing kids that age talking like this ^ (except slightly less eloquently). My school was like hogwarts, except without magic, and slightly more sheltered from the real world.

rusty: yeah i went to a private school too. Best in newcastle!

Do you have four differents houses like Hogwarts? (with the exact same colour, you know what I mean like Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, etc.)

on a side note, I love the idea of the frame having a hole so you can put your D-lock through it to lock the bike, brilliant idea especially for messenger who need to lock their bike up quickly, granted I'm not sure how strong the frame is after someone drilling a hole through it but meh;





It's a home-made frame by Naked Bicycles, Lance Armstrong apparenty brought that bike.
