First ride out on this earlier. Plenty wrong with it: brakes are shit; derailleur hangar is bent; bar tape is fucked; it’s got shitty plastic pedals as the decent ones that were supposed to go on it are locked up at work.
But - after two years of riding nothing but a Surly Troll - it’s fucking fun. I love the Troll, but it’s not exactly lively or responsive or fast. Had a quick blast around Wanstead Flats and Hollow Pond, felt comfortable on a variety of surfaces. Just need to get the shit bits sorted out now.
