I've been out on the bike for a couple of hours, and I'm very, very happy.
The bike glides over the tarmac, which I think is a combination of the 25mm tyres, the CF fork and the tube set. The handling is responsive without being twitchy, and it fits me well.
Had a whizz around town, a quick circuit of Regent's Park, then up to Highgate via Swains Lane, and it climbs fine too.
Thanks to everyone who's commented in the thread, and I've really enjoyed documenting the process. Here are a couple of shots to wrap things up.
Hopefully I'll get to meet some of you at Bespoked in April. I'm going to be in the New Builders section, exhibiting as Munin Bikeworks, and this bike should be there.
Cheers!
