It really is a cracking looking bike. Even better with some dirt on it.
How you manage that saddle to bar drop is beyond me though!
MisterMikkel-
Cheers! Feels pretty comfy with this setup at the mo, will probably need to tweak the fit after riding it for a bit more.
Though in all honesty, a size up would probably be the correct size for me - Donohue & MASH are 58cm; Graham Weigh, Croix de Fer & this are 56cm. I can make this fit comfortably enough though, & I've not had any fit-related pain with my smaller bikes as I've scaled finishing kit to make it work.

After more time & more mistakes than I'd anticipated, it's finally finished!
Went for a short off road ten mile loop yesterday afternoon to bed it in & it feels great! It's much more lively than the Croix de Fer, quite pleased!
The front brake, which I topped up myself with fluid, isn't perfect, but it's a lot better than it was before. It's been good to learn about some of the hydro stuff.
