Well, good news in as much that it looks like I will get paid out for my
nicked bike to some extent. Still doesn't adequately describe how I feel
about the 'person' who took it. So, in deciding my next move and speaking
to my LBS today I have a number of options ranging from going to something
like a 2004 OCR2, which looks quite nice, or going the whole hog and letting
him play with building me a bike around a Giant 'hybrid' frame of
alloy/carbon and then adding bits on.
I am very tempted to go for the latter as it looks a very very nice frame
indeed, although I haven't seen the full bike built up. Trouble is that I
need to gather as much cash as poss if I am going to take this option so I
am going to have to sell my Bianchi to part fund it. If anyone's interested
let me know (58cm frame, celeste, campag veloce/mirage - pretty immaculate
for £625 but may negotiate).
Otherwise has anyone experience of the Giant frames I have mentioned? Just
wondered if they were indeed worth such investment? It did look very nice I
must say and would serve me well once I got fitted up properly.
Cheers
Paul.
