Yep I've got one and yes they're pricey but worth every penny in my opinion. They let me test ride one before I ordered one, that was enough to make my mind up. The frames are beautifully built and they really are proud and take care in what they do. Do it!!!

I'd love one. Can't decide between a hooliganish Ranger or an XCish Chaser.

I fancy a Chaser. I'm looking for an all round xc frame for trails, marathons and bikepacking. I'm also looking at the Sonder Broken Road. I presumed the Chaser would be much heavier, but it's only 150g ish heavier than the ti Broken Road.

I'd love a Ranger but can't afford one at present. Stunning looking IMO but of course not everybody likes that look...
Nice build Fongsaiyuk

I took a spin on Cranked mag Sebs the other week. Surprised by how light it was and how eager it felt. Outside my budget, but curiosity was perked.

One of the chaps at Bike Remedy in Stonehaven has one too. I'm itching to have a shot on it to see what it rides like as I'd love to replace my Bigwig with one (opens wallet and sighs.....)

That interview is totally rad, definitely makes me wish I had the money to buy a bike and support those guys.
