Nice but it needs some colour IMO

AC replied... on 20 August 2010

Cheers man, Black is a colour!

Anyway, I'm going for a stealth/knight rider kinda look.

Would have been a 10 if I thought you'd oiled the chain in the last month.

AC replied... on 18 August 2010

The chain was oiled 2 weeks ago after my last ride! The whole bike got a wash down with muc off and a bike spraying as well as the pads getting cleaned! You git!

But cheers! #:-)

Good all round bike. Even better now the porkies have stopped your wheels falling out.

I've still got a stem for you to try, must remember to give it to you the next time we ride together.

AC replied... on 21 January 2011

Shorter stem maybe, the bars are fine.

oodboo replied... on 21 January 2011

I think this could do with a shorter stem and a wider bar.

AC replied... on 15 August 2010

Cheers bud, I'll add the porkies to the spec list too.

Looking good now mate... Think the freedoms have made the whole bike look more stealthy. Just a thought, you may find a shorter stem more comfy since your only small.

AC replied... on 15 August 2010

Slight correction, just discovered I'm 5'6", but that's still a good height for a man! At least I'm 5'9" with the hair spiked up!

superwol replied... on 14 August 2010

Sorry mate lol i always thought you were only small hahaha i think its that photo where we're at Johns wedding sat at the table. I'm about the same height then.

AC replied... on 14 August 2010

Cheers man. Shorter stem? Small? 5'9" is a good height for a man!!!
