I'm sure he is a good mechanic...otherwise he wouldn't be anywhere near Sky's workshop.......

The rear forks...that'll be the seat stays then. I am sure he is a good mechanic, shame he doesn't know what the parts of a bike frame are called.

Dugast probably! makes some of the finest tubulars...
-
this guy hates his job.....i'll take it

Specialized are made in the Merida factory but I do prefer the Specialized geometry. Giant is my favourite for the smaller sizing, me being on the shorter side of things.
-
Specialized and Trek :D
-
who makes the best bike frame in the world specialized or another b rand
-
58, my memory is he be 6 foot 2 or 3 hinges!! It also depends on inside leg measurement, my inside is 36 inches and I be on a 58!!

@TheBphelan you will have significant dampening and road vibration absorption compared to a alu connected to a steel steerer tube (that is if your fork is full CF, the forks and the steerer) this is dampening effect is greater than say a steel steerer (or fork) connected to a CF stem and/or handlebar
-
wow, i have the same bottle cages!!!!!!
-
@baralah dont know if you've noticed, but the roubaix is a little bit bumpy in places..
