    So, I figured that no bicycle forum would be complete without pictures of bikes! Post your photos here, no bike will be refused: Road TT Triathlon Cyclocross MTB BMX Shixie Fixie And anything else! Lovely bikes lovely, but everyday bikes interesting too. I won't post first, but I'm taking pictures right now. 🙂 I wanna see what bikes you're all riding!

    Thanks Rob. Since the profile shot was taken, I upgraded the saddle to the Brooks, changed the fenders to Velo Orange hammered finish alumimium, and installed a bar end shifter for the Nexus hub. It’s an old steel frame from some sort of 1970’s road bike. It’s a heavy bike but very stable and good for winter commuting.

    Thanks. Those are Nito
    Thanks. Those are Nito Moustache bars, wrapped with cork tape: http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/hb3.htm

    And it isn’t a fixie, by the way. The rear hub is a Shimano Nexus 8 speed internal gear hub. (Part of my winter bike strategy – keep the important stuff out of the weather.) It has a coaster brake, so no extra cables or brake pads to wear down the rims. The bar-end shifter is on the right (J-Tek: http://jtekengineering.com/barendshifter.php) and the front brake is on the left.

    The front hub is a Sturmey-Archer drum brake: http://www.sturmey-archer.com/products/hubs/cid/2/id/28/specs/1 Again, keeping the important bits out of the weather.

    I meant to build a cheap “beater” of a bike and things got delightfully out of control.

    Hi all,

    Some great bikes on here. Here are my wheels. All pics taken today after a winter clean up.

    The Merida is the newbie. I’m hoping to take her out lots this year and make my sportive debut.

    My Ridgeback is the workhorse – I commute on it and have taken it touring round Somerset and Devon.

    My Dawes I picked up on ebay. I trundle it round town and occasionally ponder fixing her up.

    And my Ribble winter bike, which due to my not-so-brilliant experience with the shop had the Ribble decals taken off and is now rebranded with Scotland stickers 🙂 The bike itself is not bad. It now has decent mudguards and different wheels.

    I also have a cheap but quite good Merida mountainbike in the shed. A Land Rover (2×2) bike on the turbo trainer, i had to put it on the road for a few weeks but it’s not a pleasant bike. And a Giant Defy which lives with my parents in the Netherlands, so i can ride when i’m there. The Defy is a cheap Sora-kitted thing, but rides amazingly well.
