LHT is finally home and sporting beautiful new bar tape, and my test ride at the LBS felt MUCH better. Kind of matters to have the right size levers and bars :D
So here are new pictures - he still hasn't told me his name yet...

Very nice, Catrin! The bar tape is really cool:D:D:D
He's beautiful, and I'm glad the fit is so much better. :)
Terrible. Absolutely terrible. Just send that eyesore to me for disposal. I won't even charge for the service LOL ;):D.
Stunning. Glad you got that all sorted out! Many happy miles.
I would call it 'Sapphire'. (Yea, I know, not too original :rolleyes: but I'm not one for creativity. I call my Ruby 'Ruby' and my Safire 'Safire' and my Anthem 'Anthem'. *Sigh*.)
Yay- glad he feels better!
I LOVE the bar tape!!! :D
Love him!! He looks very snazzy!!
My forum name is one of my bikes - she told me her name the day I rode her home. I don't ride her as much as others now, but I still love her, and thank her for re-giving me a love of biking!
Thanks for the generous offer...but I think that I can make myself keep this eyesore, though it will be quite difficult. Character building :DQuote:

Interestingly enough my cats were always named for gemstones - except for Sir Tigger the Intrepid - hilarious story behind his name :)
Very nice! That tape is perfect. And so glad the ride felt good!
Beautiful bike... she/he needs a rack, though ;-)
I got one of the 56 cm Truckers a few weeks ago, and spiffed it up with silver fenders and racks. Mine still has the "issue" bar tape, but I'll be replacing that in short order with some of the blue Fi'zik bar tape for a little extra spiffiness...
Beautiful bike! The new tape just makes the color pop. :)
Yes it does, I am very happy to say. I had wanted the 2-tone blue tape instead but my LBS couldn't get it quickly enough, this was my second choice. Great second choice :)Quote:
