I keep buying it at Tesco when I do the weekly shop but keep eating it too quickly, so popped to the Sainsburys local for a top up lol.

Doubt it, probably bought it 2nd hand and quoting some full rrp that no one in the history of biking has ever paid.
correct, the bike was 6k, then the parts added to it total about 2k
You paid 6k for a bike your full of shit. Fat people don't ride bike. All the pics are photoshopped.
not really sure what your problem is but I'm just going to ignore your existence as its so insignificant.

Why would you pay six thousand pounds for a bicycle.
How can it possibly cost six thousand pounds.
How is that even a possibility that bicycle could cost that.

His money. He uses it a lot and I bet it's a fucking good bike.
Just another hobby. People spend money on hobbies. Get over it.

It's worth every penny mate trust me. With the spec that's on it it's easily past 6k's worth of bike.

Can I ask how much that Trek of yours weighs? I have a Kona of similar-ish spec although it is 13.8kg. Would be interested to know the difference.

it was a shade over 12kgs but thats with maxxis 2.7 dh tubes in it.
my trek fuel i had before this was 14kg, and it doesnt sound a lot, but this is loads lighter to ride and chuck around, way more nimble.

There's nothing for me to get over I couldn't care less what he spends his money on, just seems crazy to me that a bicycle could cost £6,000.

No. But I'm sure with enough effort a £200 bicycle could.

Honestly. You probably couldn't.
Or if you did actually get there you would be that tired and the bike would be that broken. You wouldn't be able to ride down again.
