Used to do some modelling for Paul Smith etc, but I'm a 29" waist so probably a bit narrow for your needs? I've been known to ride a bike.

Oo ya saucy bugger!

@dbr Thanks man! Sounds good to me - maybe I'll be able to keep up a little easier this time :D

Beautiful day, hot as balls on the way in and the Nesquik gang were posted up at the end of the bridge again throwing deliciousness and smiles at errybody.

@Dammit awesome, would love to see Colorado. Doing any riding over there?

ddddrrrrrropppppppp

Holy shit, that's a beaut.

Yours is sounding awesome, I'm following with bated breath!

@Dammit heh, what you doing over there? (Or do you live there)

Lawdy! Glws.

Ah thanks @amey - still in the States though. Thankfully I realised my error when I picked up the bike and ordered some more right away. They arrived today so the thing should be weatherproof as of tonight..

So pretty much the final piece of the puzzle (for now) arrived in the post. Though, the eagle-eyed bike nerd may spot the error in the order...

Either way, these little chuffers will keep water and dirt out of the Di2 cabling holes. I have no idea why they don't provide these with the group, other than the fact that there's two different hole sizes. I imagine fitting these will be quite cathartic!

Sounds tasty man - good luck with the build. You got a thread going?

Lovely bike. GLWS.

Prov dibs for a friend

I still don't own an SLR, and have rather enjoyed riding it than finding time to get proper pictures taken - but here's a decent one from Saturday's Rapha ride.

Yes I'm aware the logo's aren't lined up right on both wheels. Rolled up to the Rapha store a bit late, with no water bottles - but they had these bad boys with a red accent on which just happens to be a great match with the bits of red on the frame/saddle.

It's basically far, far faster than anything I've ever ridden by a very comfortable margin. Hit some pretty steep gradients with ease, and on the highway schleps, it just kept steaming ahead. No issues with the Di2 shifting, as prescribed. There were a few clinking noises here and there some time after shifts, but nothing worrying. So happy I went for the Attacks, too. Just can't wait to get on it again and keep eating up the miles.

It does, and if it's the same as mine (internal group), the wiring needs to come from the battery in the seat post too.

If you're using BB30 cranks you shouldn't have an issue but I think you still need to isolate the wiring from the spindle.

Bloody hell, that really is small. I bet it weighs bugger all @Acliff?

I'm looking at them too. The only issue is I can't see anywhere with worldwide coverage for more than a month... Anybody had experiences with this?

Thanks man. Lets have a look at yours then (wherp)?

Overheard one of the staff saying that the line was a 2 hour wait. Does your friend like 90's shitcoms that much?

What size is this?

Cheers @Cazakstan. Well up for some riding now that I have a bike with brakes. Hope the weather's not too shit when I get back!

I am overjoyed to be part of this wonderful club.

Well he was pretty skeptical when I dropped it at the shop, but called C-dale, Shimano and Praxis to find out if it could be done. The sleeve that passes through has holes in it, but they were situated in the wrong place once the bb was pressed in.

The only way he was able to run it with the cabling coming through unfettered was to put the BB in reverse, which is obviously ill advised. He admitted defeat, and I sprung for a Wheels Manufacturing adaptor instead. It actually works a treat and there's no creaking. Sent the Praxis back for a refund.

There's one option out there made by Hawk Racing which would apparently eliminate this issue, so they're worth a go if anyones facing the same bullshit.

@amey Ahh cool, I might give it a bash when I get back to England. I really enjoy hammering up through the cassette, it reminds me of playing a PC first person shooter.

@Howard Yeah I think he felt guilty about not being able to get the Praxis bottom bracket to work with the internal cabling so he did everything else real nice. If your Caad10 is internally wired, I would consider doing it with a different set of cranks, or just use an adapter. The cabling passes through the BB30, and most of the converters are a full sleeve that takes up the whole bracket shell. Pain. In. The. Dick.
