I want my new bike!

It's my birthday in just over a week and my present is a new CRX4 for
commuting. It looks so cool all in black (just call me JayWoo). My
current commuter is a 10 year old Kmart special or similar which weighs
a ton.

I agreed with the family that I would wait till my birthday to ride it
but I'm certainly regretting that now. All I could think about on
yesterday's commute was how much nicer all those hills will be with
about 8kg less weight and skinnier tyres.

Sigh, I want my new bike, I want my new bike, I want my new bike!

Do that and you'll get sent straight to your room! No bike for you!

It's been four months since I commited to buying a new frame, and what
with several design revisions, a change of builder and more material
changes than I can recall I'm still not so patiently awaiting it's
arrival*. So stop whining :P.

[html]smallIt should be noted that these delays were all caused by me
changing my mind about every 20 seconds... but I'm still impatient :P.

6 months next week since I wrecked my tourer. N-1+1 bikes next week?
The rear triangle may still be original.

I get mine today HURRAH!! BUT!! I can't ride it yet, as it was
delivered with a zero offset seatpost and I need offset. Of course, the
offset I need is OUT OF STOCK!!! AAAAAAAAAAAND the handlebars I ordered
with it are also waiting delivery.... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH so , whilst I can
stroke the shiny new frame, that's about all I can do at the moment.
sigh...

At least you will be able to ride yours straight away Dave

Yep, it's painful. I've got a whole bikes worth of parts sitting on the
shelf next to me, and they are all teasing me .
