What of, a slick racing machine cutting its way through the air at at a great rate of knots, or the more realistic, fat, old geezer, wheezing and sweating heavily (and that's at just the thought of getting on the bike) scaring the locals dressed as MAMIL? :'(

Lol preferably the one that goes in the air.. But then u did say that ur boss wouldn't like that didn't u? So maybe we'll settle for the 2-wheeler... Without the geezer pls

its like.. the alfa romeo of the cycling world i think.
very beautiful to look at, goes well when it goes, but i think some of the Italian components they use (Reparto Corse mostly ) just aren't very reliable.
but like all alfa owners i'm lovin it lol

I have just replaced my first road bike after getting back into cycling after a 30+ year break.
I've just had her for a couple of weeks. its a Cube Agree GTC, SLT DI 2 ultegra. Its a full carbon bike with shimano electronic shifters, its a fantastic bike, I've removed the schwalbe 23c race tyres and fitted my old Specialized extreme roubaix ultra 25c tyres to it to soften the ride, as I found the 23c tyre at 120 psi too harsh. The carbon frame and the lower pressure in the 25c tyres really cuts out most of the road buzz that I got with my aluminium framed bike, which actually suffered a stress fracture on the frame due to the crap potholed roads we have to ride on, and the fact in a Clydesdale ( 200 lb + rider )
