Yeah, very happy. Relieved as much as anything, nothing moves, rubs, or rattles. The build was super smooth. I managed one of my better cabling efforts, great braking and shifting now. I was elated to be pedalling along an empty road and all I could hear was the "hairs" on the new tyres tickling the mudguard mounts.
Handling is of the new-school fast steering variety. Which I'm not totally wild about. It is very good going downhill, I'll give it that. But I tend to like a bit more balance between front and rear. On the whole though, very competent. Does exactly what I needed.
