Peachy Pace RC529…FINISHED Pg22

[Peachy!]

Cheers chaps, sorted now.
Mrs Peachy has pre-ordered a pair of new RS Pikes, (silver) with the 42mm off set & 130mm travel.
Only down side is I’ve actually got to wait till Christmas to have them!

Oooo, is that a present then, or just the waiting time?

Crazy, i would have changed my mind a few times by then

Very nice. I was very close to cashing in all my retro to buy and build one of these early in the first lock down as I had a spare pair of forks but they sold all the frames before I got chance. Ended up getting a much cheaper gravel bike instead which saved the retro.

I certainly had to Bolster the PayPal coffers with quite a bit of selling… although judging by the prices some of my previously owned stuff is now being sold on here I should probably have gone to the effort of stripping my bikes first…

Two days in the "dip" and only the clear coat and stickers have come off so far! Testament to Pace's quality production ethic I guess...
So no rubbing & buffing this weekend I'm afraid..... (well, not of the frame...)

I ordered what I thought would be a Burgtec handlebar, however the thing that has arrived is more like a longbow… how do the kids ride with these things!

What sort of length is it...780 or 800? You'll get used to it Chris but it is a bit strange to start off with.

800…. I’ll leave well alone till I’ve used them for a few miles. Just holding them felt soooo weird
