Then waved a tearful farewell to my S-Works frame off to its new home in Engerlund. :cry:

Replacing it with anything nice?

Cheers for the comments, hard to believe Crank it Up is only a blue!

Up and running now (with a few bugs that are under investigation).

What bugs? Had my '97 since new, so I've "some" experience with them.

It's all here: viewtopic.php?f=41&t=307486&start=0. Nothing to do with the frame, it's my shoddy drivechain installation. Started off thinking my rear mech was gubbed, but I'm now pretty sure the problem lies with the BB which is making the front ropey under shifting.

For commuting/ tarmac I can highly recommend Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres, not light, but absolutely bulletproof.

 

[gmac123]

they look like good grippy robust tyres, pretty much exactly what i need for my ambition of commuting right through winter... sadly the kinesis gran fondo, as much as I love it has a few short falls, one being that once you put mudguards on it, even narrow mudguards, you can only run 23c tyres
