Still waiting for mine (pre-ordered in January). It's at the 'In warehouse for picking' stage so I'm hoping it'll be here by the end of next week - although sod's law will probably mean it'll be ready the week after when I'm away.
It seems to have been a long wait so I'm hoping it'll be worth it!

I like it, rides well, not as porky as the weight (2.4kg frame only) would suggest.

EDIT I have a Casserol like Fatman above, it weighed 2.2kg IIRFC, and while it's better finished, looks nicer etc, it don't half make the Pomp a bargain as it's twice the price.

Oooh I don't think so Andy, it's only running 2 gears while I work out how to route the rear mech cable.

I'll take one at lunchtime for ya ๐Ÿ™‚
