    Well, new frame anyway. The design is unaltered from the one which recently became functionally
    degraded (see <http://www.chapmancentral.com/Web/public.nsf/Documents/bent_bent>) but it is a very
    nice colour, metallic cobalt blue. And I've fitted Schwalbe Stelvio tyres - wow! What a difference!
    Really noticeably faster. A cow on loose surfaces, mind...

    So I'm back on the road in the correct orientation: feet first :-D

    I thought they said you were going to get a frame with extra bits around the offending area?

    OK. Then I suppose mine is the same design as the one you broke :-\ I'll just have to lookout for
    any problems with mine. (No problem,- I'll just check the painting when I polish the bike after
    every ride... Hrmm..... :-))

    Hi Torben,

    rigth, the Optima is no challenge, its pure fun :-)

    I've just got my headligths installed, were out riding in the late evening yesterday, when the
    temperature fell to a comfortable level. I've got the 5W lamp of a Sigma Mirage setup mounted in
    from of the bike and the 20W Mirage X on the stem to the handlebar. Both the road and my feet are
    well lighted that way. (Must actually look quite silly). And then a good battery below the seat. :-D

    See you next monday. Regards,

    Anders
