Putting tubulars on it makes it a less good winter trainer but this local dude who hangs out in a bike store sold me Rovals with tyres for $99

Not actually sure. It is Ti coloured and pretty light. I should put it through the XRF at work and find out.

It was on eBay and it matched the Dura-ace shifters and the headset that came with the frame.

Lapierre X-Flow 412. My beloved Trek got stolen, fortunately was insured and peculiarly was allowed to pick replacement worth 137.5% of its insured value.

tiagra 10 speed, zora? a mechanic i was talking to swears it's smoother and works better than the more expensive stuff due to the cable routing.
― xxx heady xxx heady (haitch), Tuesday, 22 January 2013 04:46 (eleven years ago) link
That's the one. I didn't have the £ for a pricier bike anyhow, or the chops these days. The frame's a good fit; it's a manly bike & I'm of the female persuasion, but with a femme saddle it's comfy enough. I won't get to ride it until March now, but I'll be training hard then. I've been dragooned into riding the Dunwich Dunamo :/

DYNAMO.
No performance report, but I was sorta shocked at the plastic/stamped steel shit look of the latest ultegra brifters on mrs hunter's new ride.
