Anybody got one?

Looks very nice esp. with the lefty. Non-boost too with full 3.0 inch tyre

Yep I've got one mate. Complete impulse buy but absolutely love it. I've got the teal version with the lefty. Loads of grip and seems to roll over everything. Seemed to me to be a decent buy for the spec. The red model looks cool as well!

You'd better be careful, saying something like that or the Bike Industry Hired Goons will be round. Remember, [i]you need boost for a 3 inch tyre[/i], if you know what's good for you.

Sent lads. Must say I'm loving it at the moment. Only issue for me is that the lefty is a bit of a faff

Lefty faff? In what way?

Clearance looks fine with 3.0
