Kinesis KR810 frameset/bike

[GrumpyGregry]

It's that time of year again...

Anyone got one of these built up? What's it like?

I've got a similar Scandium frame (the Kinesis Gran Fondo) although I think my geometry is tighter. The bike handles well and is well made, the only thing that lets it down is the cheap (heavy) but bombproof Quasar wheels (you won't have that problem with a frameset). I hope that helps.

All feedback is useful thanks!

I've got a Racelight T and love it. The geometry's really nice and for a winter trainer/commuter it's a cracking bike. A mate of mine has a KR810, but I've not seen him since he bought it to see what it's like.

Me too - I even managed to fit a cyclocross tyre under the rear mudguard this winter (front didn't quite make it, had to remove the mudguard).
