    That boardman looks fab, a real standout in their line up. How much was the frameset? (ballpark is fine thanks).

    Did you weight the bare frame (no fork?). 1050 grams is very compelling.

    The Boone is also a very compelling prospect but at £1750 full retail for F&F, that's a bit nutz.

    If I had seen this thread earlier I would have pointed out these Merlin deals (not sure if discs): http://www.merlincycles.com/ridley-x-ni ... 71090.html But killer bikes nonetheless.
    When a cyclist has a disagreement with a car; it's not who's right, it's who's left.

    Please tell me this was NOT a 54 cm and b/c it wasn't that's why you didn't call me about it :-)

    Thanks very much. Didn't weigh it sorry but it definitely felt extremely light. Price was £1300. I rang round a few shops but no one would budge on that price so I went with a shop that offered 0% finance.
