I have to say, if the geo suits, the RL Tig 853.

The Sirius is a nice machine, but quite a weighty frame of late - the new CEN regs have pushed it above 5lbs. Inbred with Alfine - interesting! Whether you want that hub gear or not, again a weight option at the back of the bike.

Maybe the new lighter Scion is worth a look.WMB tests seemed to rate the Sirius,in comparative tests.

Liam, they seem to be built around 140mm forks, I'll be running 100mm. Nice looking frames though
