Possibly a daft question, but..

Usually built. Oh you can get it dirty straight away on the TPT.

Sneaks off to Decathlon and tells the sales staff 'my name is Potsy'.

That's my plan if it is built, bit of extreme off roading on the TPT

I did have a few bikes but am trying to thin the stable and also increase the flexibility by bringing in a mtb.

Yes but are you going to ride it or just hang your washing off it ?

Thanks Paul, I had the option of home delivery or store pick up, that's what got me thinking it might not be built, will see what the email says when it arrives

My Rockrider 560 was already built, but they do a sort of PDI on it prior to you riding it out of the store. This included fitting a set of free lights although bizarrely, not pumping the tires up fully or pressurizing the forks to suit my weight. I re-checked everything else for myself when I got home and everything else was rock solid - Great bike.

Well the answer is in, drove there this morning and gave my order number, was asked if I'd like it leaving in the box or built up.

They built it for me there and then in 15 minutes, just enough time to choose a nice matching bottle cage and some SKS guards for it

I take it you are currently out in Tatton Park testing said goods ?

Don't be so ridiculous

Had a long ride earlier to the park and back, even went extreme and cycled across the grass

Skol has already threatened me with CV, just hoping he doesn't notice this in the bike shed or I think he'll be taking it as a challenge
