Agreed. Looks like tubes have been made with toothpaste.I agree. It also looks fantastic in the graphite colour they sell it in.
I’m just not sure about the green/pink fade colour scheme.
I was about to order my dream bike/frame before I broke my leg, Mercian 'Audax Special' light tourer

They're only about 20 miles away from me, there was a local shop (Sid Mottram's) used to have gorgeous bikes in the window. The 'top of the range' bikes frames in there were built for him by Mercian Cycles, I think the cheaper ones were Holdsworth built (all badged as 'Sid Mottram' Leicester though)I used to love Mercian’s online frame customiser app. My n+1 might look a bit like this:

Why are so many bikes now this matt grey colour scheme? I find them a bit boring, but I guess there must be a very good number of folk who love them.
I know, I love the red and white it's gorgeous, and I'd probably get that, but that colour way just pops out in a way I really like too.
Something I found when sorting both mine to 9-speed is that the 11-34t and 11-36t cassettes, if Shimano, have some uneven jumps between ratios. But the cassette does come in 12-36t, and this version is pretty smooth right across, and give you two extra teeth to boot!11-34 nine speed on the back
