• Hi,

    I have seen a few fairlights around, what are the opinions of the strael and secan? Has anyone here used the secan as a "roadie"?

    I am looking to replace a bowman pilgrims and considering going something new.

    Thanks

  • I am at the moment, I’ve got a spare pair of wheels with 28mm schwalbe pro ones. It does fine and @ my weight(~95kg) the extra 1-2kgs of bike weight isn’t particularly noticeable.
    The handling can be a bit slow on the road and once I get further ahead on the mortgage I’ll likely buy another road bike.

    So in summary it’s a better gravel/adventure bike than a road bike, but still a perfectly good one.

  • I've just placed an order for the Secan, and it should arrive next month. My plan is to use it mainly for long solo rides on road (some multi-day trips too), plus bridleway adventures once the ground firms up a bit more.
