Haha...I see your point.

A friend suggested that all I need now is a blue flashing light and it could be a police bike!

Thanks, I only bought the frame, headset and bottom bracket and that was expensive enough.......I've had to live off pot noodles for the last few months!
The rest of the parts came off my other Nomad. Hopefully the sale of my old one will give me back a chunk of what I spent on this one.

Not sure on the weight yet, I wont find out until I take it to work after christmas. My mk1 weighed just under 34 lbs and the carbon frame is not much lighter than the alu one.
