Lovely bikes lovely, but everyday bikes interesting too. I won't post first, but I'm taking pictures right now.  1 I wanna see what bikes you're all riding!

If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

Graybags - This is essentially exactly the bike I'm looking for.

If you don't mind, could you give me a bit more info on specs/cost?

I think the angle of the photo makes it look more sloping than what it is, although it is fairly level with only a slight dip downwards. A habit I transferred from my mtb as leaning too far forward would put a bit of pressure on the goolies lol.

Winter bike build ... 

 Okay, I'm lying - that's the new best bike, but winterised.

Mason Definition with Chorus & Spyres, 3T cockpit with Brooks tape, 8.4kg including pedals & mudguards. An excellent ride.

Because winter is coming and so is 'cross.

This is my new fun bike, the frame is by Squid Bikes in California, handmade aluminium -with some very tidy welds. finished with Thomson kit, a TRP cross fork and a mix of 9000 shifting and hydraulic braking - it's got a 1x homebrew on it, 36 up front and 11-25 at the rear

it's funner than a fun thing during the fun festival!

painted it myself - complete with Shia Labeuf motivational head tube  3

Hi everyone,

2015 Sempre Pro here. Bought the frame and built it up mostly from stuff I had on another bike, like the Campy Neutron Ultra wheels. Best frame I've ridden. Its mostly Chorus and Record. This is the 'special' bike.  My daily road bike has an Al frame from Velo Ecosse in Edinburgh. Actually that feels pretty good too. That one was built up using bit off a Bianchi Impulso. The Impulso was too large which I realized after a season of riding, and a bike fit.

Here's my bike. When I bought it it looked like crap. The person before me started sanding the frame and looked awful. Different wheels and fork. Got a paint job and replaced parts. This is my San Francisco ride!

My custom build bike

My most used bike around town:

Originally a cheap Dutch run-around from around 2000 with bottom end 3x7 Shimano stuff, horrible suspension forks and a spoke I pulled out of the rim in a silly moment.

Now completely rebuild:

  • Self-built wheels using DT Swiss TK540 rims and Alpine 3 spokes using Alfine dyno hub at the front and 11 speed Alfine IGH at the rear.
  • Alfine crankset 39x20 with Shimano XT platform-SPD combi pedals
  • RST RF-M7 rigid forks and Cane creek headset
  • Magura HS33's
  • Ergon GP3 grips
  • B&M lights
  • SKS reflective mudguards and 3M spoke reflectors.

The only original parts are Frame, tyres, kickstand and seatpost,  with a new seatpost and kickstand on order to try and get rid of the creaky sleeve and scruffy looking corroded stand. Tyres will go at some point as well. 

Actually managed to spend less than a new Norco Indie 11, which was by far the least expensive Alfine 11 bike I could find... and I used significantly better parts (especially brakes) and the frame has the rather convenient integrated rack.

 

All in all this turned out very well indeed. The hub is very smooth and silent. Very responsive on upshifts especially. The Ergon grips are supurb! Forks are nicely complient, but track well in high speed decents. They are a few cm shorter than the dire suspension forks were, which made the bike a bit more nimble. By no means a lightweight at 15Kg with all the bells and whistles, but a pleasure to go around nontheless.

Road bike: Giant OCR0 from around 2004 with full set of Campagnolo Mirage 9 speed. By no means a high end group, but then... Campagnolo don't do the 'doesn't quite work' segment of the market.

Almost completely original. I replaced the sleeved seat post which got rid of an annoing creak, and worn brake pads and derailler wheels... all else seems to work fine still  1

Just need to find a solution to make it hill-proof as I struggle on the nasty 20% sections around here.

And finally: Mountain bike - Xtrail SLX from 2010.

From an independent Dutch retailer (FietsSportief) who use unbranded frames (rumour has they are Focus though, a name they do carry in the more high-end offerings) . 

Fully equipped with 2010 Shimano SLX, but with new DTSwiss wheels using XT hubs (Original hubs had worn/broken, and I didn't deem the cheap Alex rims worth spending on) and a 2015 set of SLX brakes as I broke one of the reservoirs.
