    Here is my first bike :), it needs a couple of minor things but everything seems to be in order.
    Hopefully she doesn't give me too much trouble :p

    Fluids are all relatively new, sprockets don't appear too sharp to me, the chain needs some lube I know that, brake pads have a little bit of life left, tyres are newish and no I haven't checked pressures yet will do on the way home :)

    The tyre pressures were 18 and 23 so pretty damn low! So I bumped it up to 28 and 33.
    I can see why these bikes are called the little screamers lol.

    Try those pressures for a bit then bump them up even more to compare .... make sure tyres are cold when checking pressure.
