I think it's the V2, not sure how I'd know. It has a tapered head tube which might be a clue

Looks to be the same as mine which is V2.

If people want inspiration for what a more bling build might look like…
They are really nice frames. Super comfy.

Thanks yes thats it, the V2. Should take up to 30mm tyres, I tried 32mm for one 4 mile ride to work once, fag paper clearance at the back but slight rub at the fork. Might squeeze 28mm tyres under mudguards, definitely OK with 25mm and guards

I decided to keep this after all, been out for a few rides on it and forgot what a nice ride it was, it will live at my Mum's from now on so I don't have to bring a bike with me when I visit her. Nice to have a spare titanium bike knocking around! Might try and squeeze some 30mm tyres on it for an even smoother ride.
Looking for £725 for this, bike is in Cardiff, could be collected in Surbiton too if buyer can wait. Open to offers
