Hi guys

I thought I'd share my new bike with you.

Bought it a couple of weeks ago having wanted one for years, and I love it! There will be bits to add/swap etc, but for the time being I am going to keep it as it came.

The only change so far (tonight) is to take the bar tape off the lefty fork and add the bump stop to save the fork hitting the frame. My LBS sent it later as it didn't arrive in the box.
