I don't know how mainstream they are? Not my shops stock Forme bikes, and their MTB range is pretty limited.

It does ride really well, but then I've only ridden my mates old Vanquish before. It's handy to know just in case someone asks me about it!

First pic looks dodgy. Second pic looks fine. It's fine! The clue is in Marble Stone, as mentioned

Booo ..I'm thinking the 'marble stone' might be a clue? I'd send the bike back as it's black for starters

I think it is UD carbon fibre rather than a weave top coat.

I don't think it is UD, it is much more marbled than matte. I think it's a top coat because I scratched a bit off my seatstay recently and it wasn't like it underneath.

Yes it weighs about 100Kg, I just thought it was the gears that made it difficult to climb!
