    Looks like you're probably sorted now but I've got this pair of Arundel cages that I need to list if you're still on the lookout
    [edit: now sold]

    I've had mine for about 18 months now. I enjoy it. It's been ridden through winter and what little summer we've had this year.
    The fit works well for me. From memory it sits between the regular and tall fit Straels, and similar geo to Mason Resolution.
    On 30c Schwalbe Pro Ones it's plenty comfy but still feels nimble, and quick to get up to speed.

    It's an FTX Outback Fury.

    I've got a FMS FCX24m for my eldest - the Discovery variant. It's pretty good out of the box, just needed a bit of weight adding to the wheels to keep it planted on steeper / rootier climbs. We use it mostly indoors but also good enough to take out and about with the two speed transmission.

    I'm in need of some guidance. I'm planning on getting rid of my car and replacing with a bike for school runs, trips to the shops and general use around town. I've tried both front/rear loaders and prefer the latter. Kids are 4 & 2 and their school & nursery are less than a mile each way. It's the same distance to local shops.

    I'd originally been looking at a GSD S00 but then saw the estarli longtail and I'm trying to work out how it comes in that much cheaper ... what am I missing - is Bafang vs Bosch that much of a difference? Otherwise both are belt drive with Enviolo hub, similar size, load capacity etc. Of course, I'd prefer to spend less where it's possible, but it would be my first ebike so think I must be overlooking something here.
