Pictures of your Bike

Hi everybody !

I'm new to road.cc so let me introduce myself.

I am a forty-year-old guy passionate about bikes since my childhood.

I divide my time between La Rochelle in France where I live and the south of England where I go every month.

Currently I have 2 bikes: a horrible old mountain bike to go to work (Decathlon Rock Rider 300) and a singlespeed that I mounted myself that I mainly use for long walks on small roads.

some characteristics of the "beast":

Columbus frame

chrome fork

Sturmey Archer crankset

Saddle Charge

Modolfo Corsa brakes

700x25 wheelset with Continental  UltraSport tires

 weight 22,5 pounds

here's a picture of it

Hi guys, thought I would share my build with you guy. The different setups. Feel free to leave your opinion.

Frame: Unknown Singularity | Size 58 - Aluminum 6066 T6
Fork: Unknown | Carbon (12K) with 1 1/8” - 30mm rake.
Wheels: American Classic 420 Aero Track | Clincher - 43mm deep - AC Bladed Spokes Black - AC Aluminum Nipples Silver - 18h Radial Front - 24h 2-Cross Rear
Saddle: NET Selle Italia | Custom Keirinstreets
Headset: LOOK | ALU-CARBON bonded
Handlebars: LOOK Pista | Carbon - 42mm width
Crankset: Sram Omnium Pista
Chainring: Kappstein ProLine III
Cog: Kappstein
Chain: the cheapest one

The build started with the main setup though to ride on the streets. The Singularity is a very sharp and compact frame, usually, I would ride a size 56 but with the Singularity, due to its geometry, I am riding a size bigger, 58.

The main components of the street setup are clearly the handlebars and the gear ration. The handlebars are a 72mm wide risers from Velocidad Components in aluminum. Considering that I live and ride in a city with very light traffic getting stuck in traffic between cars is not a problem I have to consider, so I can follow the wide bars fab!

The other aspect that changes on this streets setup is the gear ration I choose to ride with. Considering that my city is pretty flat and I am a lazy commuter I ride on a 49x16 ratio. Allows me to cruise around town without major issues… A few sprints every now and then and I get home with a smile in my race.

The other side of the setup is the racing one, and full disclosure, I only go to races to have a beer and have a great time. The mains change is the handlebars that I will ride with a Look track carbon handlebars that I got from a local legend racing for the local and national track team but as cool as they look, unless I am at the velodrome they are not the most comfortable, so for cries and other races like the Fixed42 I am really looking to upgrade it to something with more hand positions.

The gear ration as you can imagine will vary according to the race I am racing but the biggest chainring I have is a 51t and the smallest cog a 15t which is usually the ratio I ride in the local velodrome.

What do you guys think? Besides the super wide bars fab I really like the look and feel of my ride.

nice indeed,

They say your first Ferrari should be red besides I’m over the murdered blacked out look. Campagnolo record groupset. HED Stinger4 wheelset.

My trusty old Felt B16. Probably my 5. or 6. tri season riding it, obviously with on-going maintenance and upgrades. But, I'm still the one slowing it down

First post - thanks for having me here!

Ridgeback steel touring bike minus mudguards, rack etc. Mainly used for bridleways and 'rougher' terrain.

My stable ... the Jamis carried me on LEJOG in June / July this year. The SPA Is my winter bike.

'arty' sort of shot of some drivetrain!

My new commuter bike, Genesis Day One 20 after my previous suffered a cracked seat stay. Took a bit of getting used to the hub gears, but I'm made up with it now. 

Ride for miles to a phone box only to find a tree growing inside it!

Presumably a trunk call... Sorry... ish. 

My armchair ride, complete with new shiny decals.

New bike!

Self built Bianchi Sempre Pro, full Campagnolo Chorus, Campagnolo Zonda wheels, Syntace finishing kit, Speedplay zeros. The poor man's Specialissima.

The lovely old Infinito has gone to a happy owner in Lincoln to help save up for something really special, but meanwhile I missed celeste.. so this end-of-season bargain frame from Italy came home.

Sadly now sold to make way for the Rourke, in this build with Athena 11 speed:

2019 Venge I collected last month, bit more comfort than the ViAS model it replaced.

Recently finished Condor Acciaio

This is my Mapei!~
