According to http://www.slowtwitch.com/Products/Things_that_Roll/Tires/Continental_GP_4000_S_II_3946.html they will come in 25 and 28 (and 20 for triathlengers with HED3 front wheels). Interesting graph of Crr vs. pressure too.

Yes, but 25/28 come only in the black option (i did not explain properly what I wanted to say before). Why making 8-9 colours only in 23!?!

I wish it involved some real road surfaces.

So 25 and 28 seems to be better... and then Continental decides to make the new GP4000S II in many colours yes... but only in the 23 option

Finally found the Tour article on tyre widths, rolling resistance, and vaguely sciencey things - http://www.conti-tyres.co.uk/conticycle/road_tyres/GP4000sII/WideRaceTyreTest_TOUR_Magazine_2014.pdf

Interesting read, but wishing they'd involved Grand Bois Cerf's to compare... Ed? 0_o

Isn't wide good yes, but also related to the rim width?

I had until the last monday a 6 gears... but I ended up using most of the time just one gear... I would go for a single speed!

you re right. Going to delete that!

^ I applied to work for Condor customer service when I left Kinoko - they never got back to me.

This is the backlash...

They don't know what they missed! Speak with Julian!

£1250

I agree with Hugo that they are good frames by the way. A bit pricey, but they are nicely made.

And the guys in the shop know their job!

Rusty.

Seriously, it'll rust even under a clearcoat and you will have spent a load of money shortening its life and making it look worse.

Fair enough. Just waiting for Condor reply (wow, they have a real good customer service)! I will probably stay with matt black and withe.

Condor's frames are nicely built and the welds are always very neat. I'm sure that photo would be on point. Remember that a lot of that tarnishing could be removed or lessened by blasting or polishing.

Personally I wouldn't strip it. You will either have to clear coat it or pay attention to it to prevent corrosion. As it's higher end steel I'd guess it is likely to be thinner so you'd have to keep an eye on it.

Thanks, the fact it is that I am not goint to strip it because I am asking a custom colour to condor (http://www.condorcycles.com/about-us/custom-colours.html), so I was wondering how it could look with no colour at all but just clear coated.

What did Condor say?

Going to give them a call... but from that picture I don't think it will look nice in raw colour!

Hi. I am buying a Condor Acciaio. I opted for matt black frame with matt white condor decals...

I was wondering how the frame would look in raw steel, I have no idea of how the weld joints looks like. Any suggestion

EDIT: probably like this? http://twitpic.com/difh8b

Did I see you riding this past Fitzrova Cycles near Goodge Street last night?

Yes, I was going to do some laps in RP.

Sold

I will swap the saddle and the handlebar with the Logic II, and kept the bottle cages, but this is how it looks from the side.

Would you part with the 90mm Ritchey stem? What angle is it?

For sale my **BMC SL01 ** Ultegra 6700, size 51 (535 mm top tube), model 2011. The bike was bought new on the 16th of December, 2012, From Evans Cycles, and I have done around 3000 miles on it.

It has a full Ultegra 6700 groupset, DT-Swiss R1700 wheels, and Ritchey WCS Logic II bars wet black (40 cm C-C) and WCS 4-AXIS stem wet black (90 or 100 mm, I have both). I am not selling the pedals, and the saddle is the original SCOR (not the white Fizik). I have two streampost, long and short version. I am looking to sell the full bike for £1400 > £1050. Never crashed.

Pictures here (the one without mudguards).

Sorry... I missed that! (you have a PM)

Looks a nice bike. what area of London are you in?

I live near Wood Green, and work close to Warren Street

Dear all, I have a problem with the Streampost of my BMC SL01 ULTEGRA model 2011: it slips down. I wrote to BMC and they suggested me to go to Evans (the guys in Evans even don't know how to unlock the streampost) and "First of all, the basic adjustment must be correct in order to have the right clamping tension. Also carbon paste can be used to avoid slipping down. This should definitely solve the problem."

The streampost is not the original one that came with the bike, but the longer version. I have a 51 frame but it resulted small for me (always thanks to my ignorance in the road bikes field at the moment of buying it and to the "expert" help of Evans). I still have the original streampost and if I will not be able to fix my problem I will need to sell the bike (or frame).
Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks
