Allo, wanted to introduce myself, just had the luck of being able to get a new bike after riding rickety old heaps for a few years, I'm always flying around London especially at night when energy and weather permit. would be lovely to see some of you around town and I'm going to try coming along to north / easts. drinks,,,,my loyalty is split as live spot inthe middle in no man's land. yipes...p'raps I should keep that one quiet.
Rebecca.

The white tyres ruin it for me
+1 i quite like it...
Personally I'm pro white, if you go for cream it just looks like you're trying to rip off a cheap guvnor - pashleyesque build.
I'm bias as it's very similar to mine, and if it's based purely on aesthetics, if you've got white decals on the frame, cream tires would look 'orrible.
Unmatched seat // grips is a fail for me though.

In my experience with bike shops in general (USA and in London) were quite patronising towards me for being a woman and a bit clueless about some things. In fact they did such a poor job looking over one of my bikes that it was unsafe. It's like car mechanics, if you don't know about your machine they just take advantage and your money. That's why I have been teaching myself and taking care of my own bikes now and have found a real love for it, so in some way I should thank those guys for being such jerks!
I agree with that, I've come face up to a lot of trouble when going into bike shops, pedal and motorcycles, majority of the time I get a bit of a cold shoulder, but there are the little gems that really go that bit further to make you feel at home, Dani Foffa is one example, just bout my bike from him and his attention to detail and customer service was second to none...there's hope out there at least.
