Anyone got one?

Would like an opinion for suitability as a all-day/weekend bike and part time race bike here in the South if possible?

Gets good reviews in MBR, but then of course it would.....

Would it be suitable for occasional fun trips to Wales / Lakes, or be tediously slow, ie I couldnt "rag it" like a 140mm bike?

Ive got one. Lovely bike. I do 12 hour races on it and normal XC rides. Fantasic at trail centers too.
Cant recommend it enough!

Had issues with the Rovals snapping spokes. But apart from that not a problem. Ive upgraded mine ALOT plus im running it 1x10.
