It's a statement bike rather than one designed for real use.

This^^^

I would imagine it's the ideal mode of transport for the type of hipster who sits in the window of Starbuck drinking latte while using his electric typewriter.

I personally think it's probably the most terrible looking bike I've ever seen.

Whitestone - the Lauf's do what they said on the tin. They are spot on for that kind of racing; light, reliable, comfortable.

I know some folk think they are ugly, but I sleep in ditches and wear my bibs outside my shirt when I'm racing, so why would I care what a fork looks like?

I'll be on them again when I hit the race again......

Not a chance. Hipsters don't ride stuff like this. And they sure as hell don't go to Starbucks. Not from London are you?

Cheers Rob - was thinking about them for the HT550 and CTR.

HT550? CTR? I'd leave the Lauf in the shed and go back to a set of Reba's for that one if I ever get the time to race them.
Thats far outside the Lauf remit.

Cheers Rob. Looks like the Pikes if I can't find any 29er Rebas with 15mm axle.
