The Velospace "mosh" bike has aftermarket forks. Which do look a lot better, and have to be better than the originals*
*I've not ridden them but they're high-ten steel and alu right? Rough. That's going to manage to be heavy, weak, and uncomfortable.
A Nelson is in a different league and £225. Worth a look. A Nelson also has track orientated geometry.
Agree. Owned both a visp and a nelson and they are night and day. Nelson is like a kilo lighter, stiffer, welds look better, overall better looks, better geo. Everything really.
But actually I think it's Nelson that's just pretty damn awesome for its value compared to other cheaper alu frames. Somehow I just feel it has a lot more soul than other sub 500e alu frames. Maybe because it doesnt look like cheap bianchi super pista knockoff like every other ugly hydroformed frame.
