I got a set of pista bars for the track, but for city jamming, I find bullhorns great,

You might want to compress those images...

They are. 640x480 JPEG ain't big.

From the dyndns.org link I'm guessing they're at the end of a DSL connection and tiermat is finding out just how many people browse this forum

I'd suggest hosting them on Flickr, Imageshack or similar.

I didn't say "resize", I said "compress" - those images are approx. 3mb each.

They're not, they're 3000x2000, and 3MB. Its just the size on this page is specified as 640x480. Which is why they take ages to load and look a bit rubbish quality, as they're being resized by your browser.

[tiermat]

sh*t dudes, sorry my bad, resizing them locally now

[tiermat]

OK, reduced in size locally and are now only ~90k each, teach me to think before sticking pictures up here straight offa tha camera...

Going for a lie down in a dark room now whilst my router cools down

D'oh. Good point. Brain not functioning properly. Ta very much.

Here's my Longstaff audax bike, recently rebuilt after a respray. It used to be turquoise, but I'm going for classy black on all my bikes now.



Spec is: Open Pro rims on Hope rear and SON front hubs. Dura Ace shifters and transmission. Nitto bars and stem. Ultegra brakes and seatpost.

I think this is the best looking bike here so far. Reason? it's the forks, I like the fork blades to have the bend in a nice smooth curve at the bottom just above the dropouts.

Eg my bike:

I don't. I don't like the extended head tube, the position of the STis, the fact it has STis, the height of the bars, it just looks wrong.

Yep.

Shouldn't have put the touring chainset on. Less chainring clearance you see. I dropped the chain off the inside of the bottom ring, and it got jammed between the chainset and the frame. 

I rode 50 miles before noticing the damage so hopefully it'll be OK. But I'll be keeping an eye on it. 

At least it explains the chain jumping.

"The time has come" the rower said,
"To photo all my bikes,
And post them on the internet,
to see which the forum likes."

Please excuse the blurry pics,
they're not a pretty sight;
I'll have another go sometime,
in somewhat better light.

I tried to rhyme about each bike,
Words of envy and lust,
But with poetry skills of McGonnagle,
I gave up in disgust.
