My new gravel/commuter bike. Loving it so far. Even better with these wtb resolute tyres. Just got a Brooks cambium c17 and spd pedals that I'm fitting tomorrow.

    Read loads of predictions that the topstone was destined to be the best value gravel bike of 2019.
    Have to say, it does look nice. How does it ride?

    Enjoy it!

    hideous mess at the bar stem / drops angle. have you had an horrific accident or got curvature of the spine such as you need to ride like that?

    the green colour is nice though

    Have you considered a career in PR or possibly the Diplomatic Service?

    Nice bike - just ignore the negative comments and go with whatever you are comfortable with. In any event, one of the other MFs will probably be along soon to compliment you on the bar / stem set up!

    Very nice - I keep considering a bike like this, I just need a better reason than "I haven't got one yet". What size are those tyres?

    I'm guessing the raised position of the handlebar is in the interest of spotting hazards when you're commuting.

    That colour is seriously nice!
  • I'm thinking of getting one of these. What size is yours?
