    His nom de plume is a rude word, in welsh, kinda. Either that, or his name is just Myko Chan and it's just coincidental, and I'm incredibly immature.

    Anyway, as I said, nice bike.

    Look's very nice. Very similar to mine in appearance except I went for the disc di2 version. The di2 has been the worst decision I ever made. Great bike though.

    Fantastic build!!

    IMHO, the Idol is still one of the nicest looking frames out there. Tube shapes are beautiful (especially that top tube), love that smooth transition from the TT to the seat stays, no dropped rear stays like just about every bike these days, and the geometry is great too. You can get really aggressive if you want, but it won't destroy you on the super-long rides.

    And it offers a fabulous riding experience too.

    Enjoy!

    Definitely not, it's spelt differently, no k or h in that word.
