    BoTM It's a tie! Sinnerman's Sonic and Racecarjohnny's Mountain Goat Deluxe share the win for July 2023

    I'm happy with the tie. I wouldn't kick either of those bikes out of bed for eating crackers!

    BoTM mcada's 1991 Steve Potts Cross Country Racer is the Retrobike Bike of The Month for June 2023

    My favorite colors for bikes. So so good. Those rims seem so low profile there's hardly room for the brake track! Which looks awesome!

    Giant TCR Advanced

    Yo, @hanjokhab TL;DR: The TCR is not too long and stretched out for me, but it definitely has a solid reach so expect to be less upright and more hunched. Your mileage may vary. Long version: Assuming the measurements (head/seat tube angles, reach, bottom bracket height, chainstay length...

    Too much? (white wheel content)

    That blue is electric. :oops:

    New Klein owner

    This bike is oddly so right. The paint, the gray rims, the black stem, the triple, the turnt up bars. Looks to be my size, 58cm. 👀

    '96ish Custom Bontrager CX

    Don't forget about my favorite part of build threads. No sarcasm. It makes the whole thread better IMHO. tangent - a completely different line of thought or action. Nothing like a good side story about the build.

    Gone Over The Edge (TO)

    I love the bikes of the month recently and the bike of the year, but this might be my peoples choice favorite on the site right now. All the coolness from back in the day in an orderly package. And 24.03lbs!

    '96ish Custom Bontrager CX

    Pulling up a chair. Take your time, I love a good slow burn. :D

    2016 Kinesis Tripster MK1

    That's a capable looking ride. I'm all for the understated look of Ti frame and black parts and finishing kit. Good choice on the skin wall tires, too. I was just thinking it has to be kinda creepy riding through a firing range even when you know nothing's going on (shivers). Thanks for posting!

    The Genesis Equil Brum Brum Project

    Looks great and it seems to be able to fit pretty fat tires which is always a bonus. You've almost got yourself a...gravel bike. 😬😄

    For Sale Retrobike snoods - taking orders (order book now closed)

    Lickskillet in for two snoods blue is my preference.

    Giant TCR Advanced

    Howdy from the U.S! I just went for a ride here in Boulder, Colorado, and it was a lovely fall day. All made more lovely by this fancy bike cycle which I've really appreciated ever since purchasing new back in 2017 so I thought I'd share to give folks something to waste time on if they wish...

    Retrobike snoods? NOW VOTE FOR YOUR FAVOURITE DESIGN AND COLOUR

    Yes, I'm still in for two, thank you for checking! If the postage is crazy expensive, I'll still buy the snoods, and you can donate them to another UKer.

    1990 Bianchi Sika

    Wow, this bike turned out really well, nice work! I like the upgrades, they really take the frame and fork up a couple notches.

    Yeti SB140 build

    That is one of the best looking Yeti's I've seen. I also have one, an SB4.5, for several years now, it's been really good. I'd even say great to excellent. I've done some bigish rides and it just works well on everything. Enjoy!

    1999 Cannondale F700 Volvo blue Rescue

    wow, that turned out really cool. I'm surprised the rear fit even with the narrow tire. I thought most 26 inch wheel bikes would max out at 27.5 inch. Awesome that it worked. It also looks like the rigid fork didn't mess up the geometry at all which is great. It looks fast and fun!

    Saffron 29er

    This bike is awesome, both paints look great, and I think the lefty looks pretty great even though I'm not usually a fan of that aesthetic. It looks like a blast to ride. Thanks for sharing!
