after months contemplating a new race bike i've eventually splashed out. Will make a few lighter upgrades over the months but until then i will enjoy it. Help with the racing as well i hope

I'm assuming that weighs as much as an over engineered cobweb.

looks very nice (and quick)

prob trim the front brake cable about 30mm, the other cables are fine though, a bit compact but run quite smooth

possibly, though i think i prefer the longer events more. AN hour and a half in the saddle may not be enough for me. Its a warm up on the road bike 😉

think the stumpy will make a big difference,just make sure that when the bars twist round the brake levers etc clear the top tube,know of 2 frames that have bit the dust in this way.one was after 2 races,thats only 3 hours of riding.

FFS Duggie you could have suggested a Karpiel Armageddon instead!

Very nice Radoggair, but does it meet the trail centre minimum 6" travel requirement?
