Badger has been out on a 30 mile hilly ride. Being french and handsome, he tried chatting up some rural Swedish females (cows and horses mainly) but had no luck due to lack of bartape and the ugly uncomfortable bars themselves. Deda piegas inbound and I'll give him a new chance after they're on. Otherwise no issues with handling, hard braking or anything really (subject has been debated here). We'll see how long that lasts. Anyway, reasonably pleased with the preliminary outcome - goal was to have a training bike for the wet months before the actual wet months set in and I managed it.
