That's a steal. Hard to argue against any of that spec, it even has fancy 3C tyres.

I like the fact the XL model has 800mm bars, there's some thought actually gone into the specs.

I went for a medium however i was unsure between that and large. Hopefully it'll be ok but they'll arrange an exchange for 15 quid if not according to customer services.

A 150mm dropper post & a chain guide too.  You even don't see that on some bikes 3 X the price.

They are really well thought out in terms of geometry & specification.
