Black and Yellow, love it!

May I ask what a 'good deal' is, and where you sourced it from?

From what I gather, it is a hongfu fm169 aka Avenger R8 painted to Shark Composites spec, there may be other subtle differences but none as I can see.

I purchased it in a private sale as a complete bike, stripped it and put my own bits on. As for the price, I was very happy

I thought it looked very familiar - nice looking bikes though, those.

The VCUK team race on these as far as I know, good looking bike.

Was my birthday recently so treated myself (and the bike ) to some bits, will update pics when all is fitted. Also putting a set of aero bars on with internal routing for the Di2.
