a step in the right direction mikee, try pulling a bike out next week
good logic TK
wheels this year, groupset to campag next year and a frame the following
the fun police isn't getting the full truth, been sitting on my vegas winnings for some time now. I want something stiff & light, I've been deliberating over
a) carbon/deep section
b) custom build route
c) or a set of the benchmark ksyriums
think I'm about to take the plunge on the ksyriums

Ok i know i dropped the ball a wee bit with the Apollo frame although in the flesh its nicer than many Raleighs i've had from that era if a wee bit heavy. To redress the balance I also bought this:
$_57 by stefsmif_velomaniac, on Flickr
Carrera Krakatoa, early 90's, Reynolds 500 chromolly frame and fork, lighter and more mtb purposefull than the Apollo, nice shade of metallic red but scruffy decals that I'll probably leave on. Hopefully ride this one a bit around my trails where it should be ideally suited.

Re: Re:
aye, have taken the DA 9000 C24's & the RS80's both into consideration, however with a future campag groupset conversion in mind the mavics seem more flexible. across the net the mavics get great reviews from the press and Marmite reaction from the punters. personally I've had a few sets of mavic wheels and loads of wheels with mavic rims, and nothing really to complain about

Oh well, holiday over. A lovely sunny week in Wales, unfortunately without a bike.
Kept passing all the mtb meccas as well. Could see the Antur Stiniog trails from outside our cottage.
Nevermind, had some good steam train rides and enjoyed the sun. Sharron's digital detox lasted until lunchtime the first day when she discovered the cafe had wifi.
