Let me know how it rides please.
It rides good. It rides very good. But then it depends on what you compare it with I guess.
58cm frame, the largest they do, is maybe a tadge too small for me at 6' 2" and I'm not sure my beer gut will let me ride on the drops comfortably: but then part of the reason for getting it is to get ride of the gut!
Thin tyres and an alloy frame could make for a harsh ride but I can't say I was any more beaten up by the ride home than I would have been on my tourer, and I got home quicker.
The Lovely Helen, swmbo, approves of the biked, phew, and pulled a very funny face when she realised it only has one gear and bunny lake, our daughter, liked the pedals! The cross I bear as the lone cyclist in the family.
Yep - this bike now has a date with the Southend FNRttC and will be available for inspection on request. I still think
EBC should have maybe made it a tadge more expensive and thus put a fork on with better clearances but what do I know?
