No comments? not even about the extension cable? guess its just not niche enough... should have got a Fixed, ridged, bamboo 29er I guess ๐Ÿ˜€

First quick shakedown ride and it's all good, quick at going down, climbs ok and there isn't a massive amount of pedal bob on the flat. Only change I'm thinking about is to the tyres to lighten it up a little.

Forks felt a little stiff so will have a play with the pressures, but I seem to remember reading that forks need a few rides to bed in, is this true?

Its muddy now, enjoy the crappy phone pic:

I used to love my felt virtue, went like poo of a shovel only problem was the number of bearings with the equilink set up and the fact that felt never design suspension for UK conditions. Lovely bike but be aware that you will be getting through bearing at an alarming rate, especially if ride in winter anywhere like the peakdistrict
