I'm thinking of replacing my Camino AL and have been looking at the Mehteh.

Has anyone got one? Or rode one?

Is there any Brother-ly love on here?

I have a kepler so can't comment on how the Meta rides, but build quality is spot and ride quality if everything you love about a steel frame. I would say they size a little on the small side though but nothing a bigger stem can't solve. If the Mehteh had more mount options I would totally get one, but it has a carbon fork so that means no front rack.

Yeh, but the crown needs to be drilled so you can attach a rack and these don't have that.

I was looking at one. Can't help with how it rides as I went with a Fearless Warlock instead. Which looks not too dissimilar in geometry.

Don't know how that rides either as I've not built it up yet. So not a helpful post really 😂

Oh dear

Did the Kepler have a toe overlap issue? The 2019 mini review of the Mehteh on GritCX mentions toe overlap

Never noticed it myself and I run my clips as far back as they can go. I have size10 feet so don't know if it would become an issue if yours were larger.

Was looking at a Mehteh last year but there was a little confusion with stock at the shop, so being impatient I ended up going for a Big Bro. Can't fault it and would definitely go for a Mehteh off the back of the Big Bro alone.

Yes, brother-ly love here too, but also for a big bro. Thinks it’s great but can’t comment on the mehteh.
