Why? I tried to buy a Kona Honza a while ago before the fridge blew up and took the funds away.

Why mess with outdated kit? 😉

I'm trying to blag a Genius 710 for that weekend which could work as a 'team' bike.

"7"?

That'll be 650b then? Can you blag a "9" something and bring that too?

I actually ideally want to borrow a Kinesis FF29 if any one wants to lend one. I'll be comparing with my Enigma Ego in "race" mode.

Kinesis if your are watching ahem, ahem.... happy to wear sponsred kit etc 😆

Inbred £99.
Them GT steel forks on the classifieds £45.
Usually a couple of cheap sets of wheels every week £50-60.
I've some cheap tyres at the moment too.
Should be doable for £250 all in...
