Fun on steps ;0)

Scoped out a fun ride yesterday back through Islington it was a lot of fun riding back across town, I'm thinking the BMX track might be just a step too far?

Both the cotic and genesis look ace. What do I get under the CTW scheme? Currently driving 25 miles, riding 15 each way, but might up it......

...and are very heavy!

I've had both - and sold both.

Neither is a good CX bike - they are marketing to a current fashion trend.

Both are great hack bikes, made for larking about on, and if that's all you want they're great.

But don't expect a proper, fast, nice riding CX bike out of them.

So a Boardman Cx Team would fit the bill better?
