Hi Folks,
Has anybody got or ridden a Charge Flter Hi?
How did it ride on and off road, and what was it like for stiffness, (for reference how much do you weigh?)?
What was brake reliabiity and anything else important like?
Thanks muchly,
Tim

I have a Charge Filter Apex which is the same frame and fork.
Only had it a few weeks, rides ok on the road, similar speed to an alu Focus Mares CX that I had but slower than a full on road bike.
Brakes on the Apex are BB5 so differ from the HI but are so such better off road than canti's IMO, handles well off road, bit of toe overlap but my Mares had that also and you get used to it. Frame isn't noticeably flexi for my 15st mass, unlike my Sanderson Life which is very noodley on the back end.
Cool, ta, and uncool ta.
It's what I wanted to hear, but it's made me want to spend money.
Cool ta overall. ๐
