I've been lucky enough to recieve the SM-1 carbon 29er from Starley. Equipped with full SRAM X.0 groupset, Fox F29 Ashima coated forks and Reverb dropper seatpost, with the fabulous Schwalbe Rocket...

If you speak to the experienced cyclist, the word Argos might ring bells in their head as the custom bicycle paint and frame builders, Argos Racing Cycles. Sadly I’m talking about something other than bells. Last week I was watching TV and noticed an Argos TV advert hit my screen. Alarm horns sounded as they were talking about bikes.
