Thank you for fulfilling this for me. It looks fabulous. 🤩
Glad it hasn't cracked ~yet~ ..... In all seriousness though, I'm 6ft 4 and 100KG (95 now, whoop!) and was definitely operating at the outer limits of both mass and seat post extension thus putting maximum strain on the seat clamp interface.
It was however a super quick and really nice handling bike and I did enjoy our brief love affair. But all good things must come to an end. With that said, the Sl7 is a much more suitable bike for me down here in the West Country lanes. 30c tyres are just a necessity, as is decent clearance.
