Leon
HD85?
21 inch.
Fits me. 193 cm. Seat aft on layback post.
Schrader valve Kenda 700c35 with ample clearance to go 50.
3*8
I like it. In Borderland; Ukraine. Eastern Europe near Russia. Many potholes, cobblestones, some smooth roads, hilly.
It feels quite a fast bike and I believe probability low of buckle or puncture.
(Avoiding cobblestone), 35s are awesome.
Really nice bike from Bike Master Kiev.
On my budget I noticed, choice of 4.
2 hub drive bikes on disc brakes.
A mountain bike on Australian livery.
Leon pictured.
Thank you well
My friend asked me why I didn't rent bike.
Easy. Rent bike restrictions route/times. Slower heavier bike.
This bike with pump, tube, lights, chain and lock. 60% cost of rental. Even has many spoke strong aero rims.. Light and quick..and no hassles.
Yeah but you going to ride that every day? Err derr.. Yeah about 100km. Expect Chernobyl tour day.. I'll have Day off.
Loving ride. Riding love.
(Better than my home bikes.. )
Edit.. Weighed her. 14.05kg. She's a porky. Yay. Guess I'll build my upper body riding her. Might even be heavier than the rentals? Who knows, who cares. Does 120km+ hilly, flat, steep mix easily enough. Been over the bars a couple of times and she ain't bent. Feels light, weighs heavy.. Must be something in the water.

Raleigh Record Ace Imposter. Actually a 1990s Raleigh frame and the shade is from a Renault car that parks near me. I’ve subsequently colour matched a real Record Ace Frame and refurbished.

Following the death of my Ridley, because of a fairly bad accident. I now have a new bike; a Genesis Zero Disc. I can say with some joy "It's brill".

Thought I'd better upload a pic of my slightly older model Genesis Zero Disc (Di2 version)

...sorry for the grainy iphone photo..

Suppose I should show my dead Ridley after my accident. Down tube broken, only cable holding it together really. Wheel and handle bars no longer attached, pointing in different directions.

My trusty old Felt B16. Probably my 5. or 6. tri season riding it, obviously with on-going maintenance and upgrades. But, I'm still the one slowing it down

My new commuter bike, Genesis Day One 20 after my previous suffered a cracked seat stay. Took a bit of getting used to the hub gears, but I'm made up with it now.

Ride for miles to a phone box only to find a tree growing inside it!
