    I really want ot get a CC travel, but with the options I want on the frame and the bag it will come in at the sharp end of £2300. That is more than my current bike is worth, must keep saving!!

    I ride as fast and hard as my limited ability allows. Taking it to Afan in a couple of weeks. Cannot wait :twisted:

    You'll soon find you'll be riding it outside of your abilities :lol:

    Mine has made me much better than when I had my Pitch, you actually have to think about lines etc an not just bomb through everything.

    Also it's made me helluva lot quicker.
