Get yourself some Egg Beaters from Crank Bros - they are so sexy. The triple titanium set are a bit steep at £285 though.

Going off to Morzine next week for a few days with some mates - can't wait!

Cannondale F600

Hate it with a passion and wish I'd never sold my Stumpjumper

Lockable Suspension and overall lightness are the only redeeming features.....great for climbing, crap for descending.

Hate to say it, but too many of these bikes look too shiny, clean, and un-ridden properly

It's only a month old too! Looking forward to my Sunday ride

None, it was stolen

Mooseracer/anyone, if you're selling in the near future I'm looking for a replacement (long-distance xc, singletrack, wilderness). Can't afford state-of-the-art though

ScoobyJawa, glad you're enjoying it

Last edited by On-The-Wagon; 06 August 2004 at 12:32 PM. Reason: My very first corner! Did it without braking, and still clipped in too!

Yours looks nice Phil
24lbs for the age (and considering some components are nothing special) is fecking good in my book.
Get out and weigh yours with everything on it and let me know the outcome
