Dammit. There was I about to book a test ride and it turns out they're not going to the next llandegla demo day. Oh well, their loss.

The quickest way to destroy a Rohloff?

Just what I've always wanted to hang of the back of my Audi....

Or do you hang the Audi off of the bike?

Tyres/Valves not lined up
Cranks not aligned to 3 O'clock /9 O'clock position
Cables too long
Seat height and angle not correct

Shocking.....you'd think by now folk would know how to take a correct bike picture?.

They look like the bastard lovechild of a misguided art project and GCSE design and technology coursework.

Eek!

Distributed by Romans Blingville Cars on the A217 I see- easy to pick one up on the way down to the Surrey Hills for a bit of roofrack posing.

Didn't notice at first that they were e-bikes. Need to be with all that jewellery weighing them down.

How do you find all this garbage cfh? Is it a fetish of yours?

Another way to spend an absurd amount of money on an ebike...

But for financial and aesthetic reasons I think a Stealth would be the ebike of choice for a giggle...

Romans car showroom is awesome. Always stop for a look in the window when I'm passing on the bike. It's a premier league footballers wet dream. Ferraris, Porsches, Lambos, Bugattis...

Bit more brass and the steam punk guys would be all over it.

Presumably you need to shell out for the Terminus Prime edition to get decent rims and a dropper post thrown in?

At least the mudguards are carbon though. Thats a comfort.

Funnily enough, the geometry (if the specs are to be believed) is pretty spot on for the travel, albeit the BB is a bit high. The components are also pretty well thought out. Despite the God awful 'luxury' marketing it does appear that it might actually be quite good for it's intended purpose. The looks are an acquired taste for sure!

That the new Orange 5? Bit of an improvement I'd say.

Looks like another opportunity for Kanye West to make an awesome decision in a bike shop.

Sold an S-Works Epic and a Madone 5.9 SSL (the OCLV Boron one) to the owner back in about 2005, he's a nice guy.

Romans is just up the road from me. I'll see if i can get a testride. Not just a car park bounce mind, a proper half day on Leith Hill. I presume i can leave the deeds to my house as deposit, seeing as every credit card i own / have ever owned combined won't quite reach the asking price.
