YT Capra, picked from their HQ in Guildford (very nice place and very well looked after - spent ages with me on the set up) then sent into the muddy wet mess that is Pitch hill and Peaslake at the moment. Took a little while to settle into it, but learning to absolutely love it! And the yellow is gorgeous!

Looks mint, enjoy it.

I can't stop looking at the Tues with the Ohlins. It would just be a dust collector though.

I do like a mk2 Transit.

Bike looks great too. I didn't even realise they had a UK HQ. Looks very flash, hopefully there was decent coffee and snacks.

I'd rather have the transit, like the colour though

There was a coffee bar in the shop, not that I drink that vile stuff, so wasted on me!

Very inventive way of posting new bike pics without opening your self up to criticism of your garden/interior decore.

Bike looks nice too.

Isn't it another Capra?

I’ve just spotted the transit! I didn’t know what you were on about with that comment - never even saw it when I was in there 😂😂. Think I was a bit excitable! And @singlespeedstu yep, a photo in my garden would have been a disaster at the moment! 😂

@sharkattack fair enough, I thought you were referring to the Ohlins shod bike in the first picture.

I never like to see a hole where a bolt should go, but no bolt. Especially in a bike shop. <br /><br />

Bike looks fantastic though.

I'd love a sesh on Pitch hill at the mo.

A beauty, test rode one of these and really liked it. Couldn't justify having one, doesn't stop me wanting one though 🙂

Have fun.

If that was mine I'd be hoping Ohlins do another limited edition run of yellow forks, they'd look amazing on that. love the colour and minimal graphics.
