Looking good, how are you finding the Saint's? I found them so much better than the Hope brakes i was using previously.

ash.addy replied... on 9 July 2010

I love them just 1 finger braking is awesome.

Now that is all kinds of awesome! And a helluva bargain to boot! Gotta be full marks!

ash.addy replied... on 25 June 2010

Could only afford to upgrade as much as I have because it was sooo cheap.

Very nice,. how much does it weight?

ash.addy replied... on 6 April 2010

Just weighed it - it's not a weenie but it's under guidlines at 30.5 lbs

love the colour coding of this bike, bloody nice... not so sure about the flowery background though :)

ash.addy replied... on 8 December 2009

At the time my now 5 year old daughter was really into flowers now the shower contains all her craft bits and bobs also it's treated like a store room. If you like the colour coding look at spicy316 he's made a real effort.

Not keen on the bar ends but that's just personal preference. Cracking bike and an absolute bargain to boot, top marks.

ash.addy replied... on 6 December 2009

The only reason for those are my hands sometimes go numb and it helps to move them around - at least their magnesium
