New training bike - update

With the good weather we've had since I finished the new bike, I guess I've now done a couple of 1000km to check out the ride. And I have to say it is surprisingly good!

OK, so you notice the little bit of extra weight on the steeper hills compared to carbon, but it is a comfortable ride on typical UK tarmac and it descends as if on rails, at least as good as frames costing 6-times the price. 


It just goes to show that there is a lot more to choosing the right bike and having good rides than paying for the latest materials or minimum weight.
