What a lovely bike that has turned out to be. Congrats indeed.
It rode really well yesterday at Phillips Park,. He tells me he prefers it to his Ragley, apparently the back tracks better on rougher stuff, and overall it turns better on twisty stuff.

Plenty of stopping power on that mind :smile: Is the wheelbase similar to the Ragley ?
I'd have to look it up, but I reckon the chainstays will be a bout an inch shorter at least, and the head angle 1 or 2 degrees less, so quite a bit shorter. He tells me the turning circle is immediately obvious, and it climbs better. It won't be as planted on the downs, but he says that appears to be compensated for by a less clattery ride in general, with the back end "floating" (his words) rather than battering its way down.
