2003 Jamis Quest
A 2003 Jamis Quest that I bought in September. It's my first real road bike and I love it.

Bripeters - Great looking ride! Is that the gray Record group? I had not realized that the gray Record group included a gray RD like yours instead of the graphite.

Use Manage Attachments and then click Browse. Then click Add This File. Then click All Done after the file has been added to the list.
If the file is too large ( >100 k I think) it won't work.

Anyway. The pic I'm trying to upload is only 87 k so it should be working.

My 1st bike
Hi all
Just got my 1st bike couple hrs ago, got it assembled, but the seat post was too long for me, so I need to take it down to my local bike shop and have a bike fit, very excited to be able to ride it soon.

you got a TT bike for your first bike?
bike fitting involve lots of things. not only seatpost height. I hope the bike fits you.

Are you gonna tell us what components you got on it?? I'm guessing that's a carbon frame as well?
As far as my bike goes... Thanks a ton to RonH for hanging in there with me and getting the fool thing posted.
I'm going to be ordering the Saddleco saddle around the end of December. They just picked up a pretty nice endorsement from Forbes Mag (one of the top 25 best products of the year). Check it out. Forbes Award

Sorry for all the late replies...Went down to the bike shop this morning and picked up the bike, the seat post had to be cut 3 inches i think, and it fits quite well now, just need to get used to the clipless pedals or to 'break in' them i should say. The bike is built with Ultegra groupset, with a syntace aerobar, 3T road bar, xlab saddle wing, speedplay zero and the training wheels that it came with. The reason I chose this bike is cause I would like to do some TT and Tri this coming year and it would take too long for me to save for another bike, so I just decided to go with a TT/Tri bike as my 1st bike. Here is the updated pic of the bike.

Ar ha, Stephen, a good TT bike. I am also from Hong Kong. Perhaps, I can meet you sometimes later to have a close look of your bike and discuss together.

I am the proud pappa of a 2004 Trek 5200. I picked the bike up about 2 months ago and just love it.

Saddleco
Hey Thhaze,
You ordered one of those Flow saddles, I would be very interested to find out is they are as good as they claim, the thought of cool really appeals to me.

Newboy. As soon as I get my saddle I'll let you know what I think of it... It should be sometime in early January.
