Got the Dartmoor Hornet finally finished last night, looks great in black with black forks, black wheels, tyres etc....only concession to color is a dubious taste in white bars and seatpost!
Will be giving it a good thrashing today, it's kilos lighter than the Piglet that it replaced but then an Alu frame and carbon bars will do that.
Pics to follow.

(Cheeky plug, anyone want a 26 inch Piglet-2 frame?....44mm headtube with Hope headset in place, Shimano BB in place also, no dents or cracks, few scuffs, green colour...let me know if you're interested)

2.25kg for the frame, about the same as my Stanton, which is steel (853).

White seatpost? There's no coming back from that.

For the sake of taste and decency please don't post pictures of it.

16 inch, when compared to the 16 inch Dartmoor it's nearly an inch shorter in front/reach....progress I guess.

Still rides fantastically, took Antur, FoD, BPW etc in its stride last year.
