    Had the 2011 version for a couple of months - love it.

    My only tip, having learnt the hard way, grease your pedals before fitting! No one told me that :(

    its here now, been fitting and fiddling ready for my first ride on her tomorrow. i had massive trouble though with fitting the left peddle. had to take it round to my local as i ended up boring the crank! but all sorted now! very nice bike, can feel how light compared to my last one too, also love the grouset and shifters. the wheels are very nice and sexy too! only real draw back i see is the white seat and frips already not very white!
