Didn’t think my puny 120mm Spesh would survive Morzine so it was time for something bigger. Do your worst…

what is it?

Sorry, but that saddle 😯

Nice bike though. Could maybe do with a shorter stem?

Tidy, I’ve got an older Reign X, and though they can be “visually challenging” to many (specifically that saddle on yours!), they don’t half ride well…

Suspect you’ll probably be wanting to upgrade the fairly basic fork on it soon, but otherwise should be ideal bike for Morzine.

one of these

nice tho.

Call that a garden?

That’ll be fun… enjoy.

If Ton don’t know / hasn’t owned…

Edit: too slow

Holy saddle angle batman 😯

😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat 😯 the seat

The saddle’s horrendous. Feels like sitting on a spike so it’ll be getting swapped asap. Pic was fresh out the box before I tweaked the saddle angle.

I could be wrong but the chain guide roller looks as though it is barely in contact with the chain and needs to be rotated clockwise?

btw, do you live in an office? no blinds or curtains and a lovely grey carpet 😛

😆

Not an office. Communal landing in a block of flats.

Grim tesco gel seat , get rid and buy a Charge spoon , then enjoy , tidy ride , go get um !

I like that. Glad you got the grey one as the red one on the link looks wrong. The grey one is very stealth.

But the saddle does look like they thought a lot about Specialized’s body geometry saddles and said “To hell with penile blood flow!”

Yes the seat design is bizarre.
