Well I was more keen on the lime green or electric blue but actually, when this arrived it looked so much like the bat bike I thought it was cool as hell.

There's a couple left on the website in 20" and the price has been reduced as the new models are coming in soon. But they will be more expensive as their brand is little better known and they have been developing other bikes (I presume).

For the money though, even at full price its so much bike for your buck. If it wasn't purchased direct then surely it would be worth £2500 - £3000(?)

Yeah I've been eyeing it up on their site. I'm also keen on the ROSE Granite Chief - largely as you can play with the spec to include Pike's. Though if the Fox 36's are anything to go by, your 34's should be top-notch.
