    Very cool, I'll keep an eye out as I ride on the Surrey / Hampshire borders.

    17kg in standard spec, which mine is apart from Sram Rival fork mounted gearing. Definitely need the granny ring to lug it up the hills!

    Is that an on-board Camelbak?

    Yeah, need something other than the usual bottle/cage setup, as I'm using my hands all the time. Handy for tools/spares as well.

    Thanks for all the positive feedback!

    Really enjoying getting out on it as much as I can and seem to find my experiences with other road users a lot more positive than regular riders report on the same routes.
