Music buying AND audio upgrades, all from the comfort of your seat...where's the fun in that?

Hi, I think my Parlee (Z3C) is wonderful and really couldn't want for more.

That's good to hear. Did you go for custom geometry and tube set?

I can however see the appeal of older Italian framesets with flamby paintwork / chrome stays / record C groupsets / shamal wheels etc and still have a fully tricked-up Look KG96 stashed away from my triathlon days 25 years ago.

The Look KG96... Wow. The classic looking carbon one in black with Mondrian colours? That is such a cool bike. Saw one online for a pittance recently, but it was to big for me (that happens a lot). Also, older carbon freaks me out. I kinda expect the head tube to separate from the rest of the bike and for me to wake up in hospital needing a face transplant. *Shudder*

Beautiful collection of bikes, through, Sablon.

Thanks for the kind words 853. The Look is an interesting bike, being a replica of the one Hinault used to win TdF. Photo below.

This thread takes the prize for having come off the tracks early
Like a cyclist crashing on the first bend !

It's my fault. I take full responsibility, but in my defence, would like to point out that Mike and Sablon goaded me on with their bike porn pics.

Roadies may not understand this, but those who ride dirt most definitely will...

Looks like mum REALLY has a lot to worry about
Lord only knows how she frets when she hears her son pleasures himself on his own in a room w the curtains drawn
The relief she must feel when he reveals himself to be an audiophile

sounds like a wonderful project with the bike.

of course, we will need pictures when it's done.

Bike purchased.
