they all different

also, if you rely on ur bike alot i would always have a spare mech hanger in.
i snapped 2 when i fitted a new chain set in a hurry, and because kinesis arnt a massive company they arnt stocked in many places, so it took nearly 2 weeks to get new ones delivered!

the downside of a more unique, classy bike :Cool : haha

Cheers alder, I'll buy a few spare mech hangers when I get the bike, IF this Kinesis XC2 sells on ebay then I'll use the money to buy the parts for it.

Cheers man, it's got a good review so I'm looking forward to build it up!


bigquotes
The T2 is at its best on shorter rides where you want to push the pace – a 15-mile commute, maybe, or an hour's training ride

Suits me perfectly as I do 15mile rides aswell.

It's not about looks though, people don't like the McLaren F1, but it drives like a dream, performance and rideabilty are the key points.

I think the Mclaren F1 is a beautiful car personally & the Jaguar XJ220

I would think a Mclaren F1 would drive like crap off a track. Now Bugatti Veyron is a beautiful car!
