I got Hope for the Time Machine, it's bigness has always bugged me but not enough to swap it for something else.
I'm going to rebuilt the TM when Percy stops hoovering up all my cash, so will likely attend to it then.
Speaking of the TM it has a tapered head tube with internal bearings which does look better in terms of the transition, however it's both heavier and less optimal from an engineering viewpoint. I've had this discussion with Matt around one hundred million times and he's resolute in his rejection of the tapered headtube.
