Sportived it.
Turned out to be more comfy than expected.
The Clement tyres roll well, i dropped to 60psi from the reccomended 80psi minimum, tyres are a bit skittish on dirty gravelly roads, but very happy with them. No slips or flats.
Hit the dizzy heights of 31mph, i think the 58cm frame would suit me better or running a longer stem for that sort of speed, i belive the nervous feel of the bike is down to me not being used to the geo and faster handling when getting around 30mph downhill.
Scoblereccomended brakes are excellent.
Bike was very quiet and rolled well, my 42x16 was a good allrounder, i could cruise between 13-16mph with ease, power up to 20mph (spin to win) and by attacking the hills i made it up them all.
