I should have some faith in Pinnacle - the designer clearly knows their stuff.
Well yes, the designer did the Genesis Croix de Fer, which is arguably a fantastic bike, the Pinnacle Arkose felt like a big step ahead of the Croix de Fer, with a slightly nimbler feel, massive clearance, reasonable weight, decent contact point etc.
TL:DR - Get an Arkose.
Likewise with the arkose when I got that but +MechaMorgan and his camo one put my tiny mind at ease and I built one anyway and now I love it.
