After fixing the Frog stem, and enjoying the benefits of now having a stem I can actually adjust, I rode out to Cambridge. It is a really lovely bike to ride, but the seatpost and saddle both slipped a little over the course of the journey. I'm not sure if it's me being over-cautious with the tightening (really need to buy a torque wrench) or a problem which I need to address. I might get an inline seatpost anyway as when the saddle isn't slipping, it is quite far forward.
It seems impossible to get a picture which reflects how nice the colours actually are. But this one does a good job of illustrating how the geometry means it doesn't get on with Race Blades.
