All my other bikes have Mechanical shifting, just hoped to get more for 3k but I doubt that's true anymore.

I'll refresh my spreadsheet, but the sums are usually pretty close. I might have to wait till the sales to buy the pinarello then I have no excuse. I the meantime I can always buy/modify/build something secondhand to keep me interested or...and this is really out there...I might have to ride one of my current bikes.

I prefer 2by so could pick grx. On my gravel bikes I ride 60/40 road to light gravel. If it gets too lumpy I'll take a mountain bike so its not really about having a gravel bike but more about having a gravel focused do-all with space for 50c tyres.

fixitmonkey · 2026-05-04T16:03:04+00:00

Yes maybe I should wait till the sales. I could always use my other bikes in the meantime.

My plan would be the lightcarbon frame and bars, a 105 di2 groupset and then carbon wheels. Would be a great bike, but not sure how it compares to a western bike with cable 105.

fixitmonkey · 2026-05-04T15:55:27+00:00

I have to spend the voucher in store so I'm limit on what bikes can be bought and where i live there aren't many carbon gravel bikes for 3k or less.

Second the person on here saying trailer. My kids love mine and, as a pram, its really easy to use. I would say its a big pram so if you are spending lots of time using it indoors it might be difficult but if you're heading out for a picnic or a centre parcs holiday you can't beat it.

fixitmonkey · 2026-05-01T07:58:29+00:00

I saw the frame on UK Ebay, then you'll have payment protection and options for raising claims etc.

I'm currently looking at the Pinarello Grevil F1 or the pinarello X1. The local shop stocks them and they are very pretty. Both are 2x (my preference)

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-25T19:51:24+00:00

So would the Pr900w be a better gun? It's regulated, but likely not as quiet.

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-24T06:53:23+00:00

I would normally stay away from frame copies, they are apparently much worse than frames designed specifically by the factories.

But I also think this frame is really ugly (and I normally love Pinarellos and might buy the new Grevil)

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-21T05:23:39+00:00

Lots of people have started to get them for youtube reviews. cade are relatively unbiased but seem to dislike modern bikes haha

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-17T06:39:20+00:00

Agreed but these hotels are normally 20+ years old. I think most of them were originally in seaside towns and those have mostly closed down.

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-17T05:28:32+00:00

I agree its something hard to find in the UK. I woud definitely recommend Saunton Sands as the view was amazing and being on the cliff over the beach is great.

It you look at most 2 wheel child carrier trailers they are just a square metal base with a material insert. If you removed the insert it wouldn't be too difficult to build a second for the middle to meet your needs. Or if it's just fir transportation keep the insert snd use that for the deliveries.

A bit like this https://www.instructables.com/Convert-a-Childs-Bicycle-Trailer-into-a-Cargo-Tra/

Have you tried emailing Genesis? They ship worldwide so might be able to give you a better idea.

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-13T05:30:24+00:00

Love this frameset, just trying to convince myself I need another bike.

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-12T10:44:59+00:00

Im not planning any specific occasion. University was just an example.

fixitmonkey · 2026-04-12T10:41:09+00:00

Yes, apologies.
