They're supposed to ride quite well, by all accounts. Where you'll have trouble is with any warranty issue, which appears to be not uncommon. Tube/weld failures not uncommon within a couple of years, absolutely no chance with warranty replacement.

We randomly had 2 of these in 2 weeks come in, one had wonky BB shell/threads, other had wonky head tube.

Thanks, good to hear some opinions. I have actually seen a few for sale that were supposedly warranty replacements which doesn’t bode very well when their sale numbers are probably relatively low. Not the kind of build that you’d want strength concerns with.

Thoughts on a Planet-X Tempest, I know the company has very mixed reviews ... but I've been considering one since I saw this build > seems expensive for a f&f but so cheap for full build. Although dont fancy 1X drivetrain.
