Anyone got one yet, standard spec or custom built? Interested in opinions, any pics?

Trevor.

complete bikes have only been around a couple of weeks - first frame-only came through this week, so they've not been about long! what's your height? we've now got our 18" demo, but also got a 16" on loan. the loan one has poorly brakes, but we can sort that...

Bit of a fox fan, no real reason, just a bike snob! Pity there isn't a fox shock option and a few more branded parts (seat post, bars etc.)

Looks nicer than a Five though, just the spec for me.

Loving the look of the grapil. Any other colours? Matt white might look sweet.

There's a brief write-up in the current MBUK too btw.

Think the gist was "nice but a bit pricey for the spec".
