And it's ace. Felt F65x. Completely stock at the moment but will be getting a set of light tubular wheels for the 'cross season and maybe a hydro brake upgrade at some point in the future.

That looks very nice Simon. I really can't justify any more cross bikes but I want it.

But that's gone on the list, it's very nice.

You going to race some of them Steve? Trying to get Mr Makin to have a go. I'm going to try and do as many of the Sunday ones as I can.

Had a blast around Delamere this evening, the bike was perfect 🙂

Great bike. What are you looking for as a hydraulic setup?

Maybe Hope V-twin. Dunno yet, got some wheels to pay for first.

Pignut Hill, plus usual half-hearted attempt at others when they don't clash with cross country. Good round Delamere aren't they? Went out with some of the dad's from school on ours. He didn't like the Old Pale DH though. Oops.

Hopefully see you at Pignut then 🙂

Lots of fun stuff in Delamere on cross bikes. Tim was on his fatbike, seemed to have fun on that too.

Hi there

How are you getting on with your new Felt? I'm toying with one a the moment.

Can you tell me what size you are running and what height you are?

Cheers
Gordymac
