Forme Road Bikes

[GJH Assassins]

I'm seriously considering buying British and getting myself a Forme road bike.
The bikes look great, good spec etc and my LBS speak very highly of the brand and have been really helpful and patient with me. I had a lot of questions!
My only concern is that I know of absolutely no-one that rides or has ridden a Forme.

Are you that man? All views welcome.

Cheers,
Graeme.

I test rode a Forme Longcliffe 1.0 last year and it was lovely. I have not owned one for any length of time though.

Me and OH have several Forme bikes bought cos they are designed locally - a hybrid each - I commute daily on mine and OH has a Longcliffe 1, we both have an Axe Edge Comp (2012), great bikes, have done well over 1000miles on each of them and no problems at all.

Thanks Michael,
I did the same with the Axe Edge Comp and thought the same.

Thanks Rock,
That's good to hear, cycling with the OH! Hope she's not quicker than you.
Cheers Graeme.

@GJH Assassins I have a Forme Longcliffe 3.0 and have put nearly 5000 miles on it since February. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever. All it has had is a minor service and new chain. Also has the advantage that it will take full mudguards so makes an excellent all weather bike too.

Thanks Mo,
5k since Feb, very impressive!
I think it's a Forme for me.

I don't think you'll regret it.

Doesn't hurt that it is easy on the eye as well.

Ha Ha! I knew as soon as I posted it I was on thin ice.
Sorry.

I've got a forme longcliffe 4.0fe and I love it! It's nice a light but feels solid to ride and I find it very confortable! Definitely can't recommend them enough!
