Love mine. Bought at the price you are looking. Needs a carbon seatpost for added comfort, but it's a great bike. I'd like some nicer lighter steel, but am very satisfied, overall.

thanks for the comments, looks like the ultimate winter price for under £700

any recommendations for the carbon seatpost?

I had my io SS for around 4 years and loved it.
