Here is Gen, freshly cleaned and parading for Dominic's perusal... so I thought that I might as well show her off to teh hole internets at the same time

Bike branded as Genesis = the sexy part of Ridgeback, which is where the Shimano everything came from (though the only originals on the bike that I didn't upgrade are the two derailleurs and the shifters as they are perfectly up to the job.)
Dura Ace cabling
Now, as these pics are here as part of a sale - I've got to include some of the ones that aren't so sexy. I have ridden this bike a lot and it has been crashed. After the crash I replaced the forks for the Eastons (no need, just a good excuse!) and changed the wheels to the Mavic wheelset, which is a vast improvement over the Shimanos that the bike came with. The only real damage that the crash did was to scrape some paint and write off my old front wheel (the cause of the crash).
I make no excuses for treating this bike as a machine to be used and enjoyed. It is not in perfect condition, but the only things wrong are cosmetic.See below pics for paint scrapes.
This looks the worst, though as it is under the tube, you don't really notice it when looking at the bike from standing. Carrying the bike up and down stairs at stations using the top tube led the rear brake cable to scrape off the paint at the point I carried it.
Here we are. At the end - it is quite a thing to think so seriously towards selling this bike
Alas, it is just not suited to my needs and my bank account is not suited to acquiring another bike without one of the team contributing to it.
Gen - the most bonkers, speed hungry bicycle I have ever ridden.
