I was tempted by the longitude, but glad I went with the Tarn in the end.

Quite like the looks of that Sherpa!

I took mine over Long Mynd last Sunday and it was OK, it coped really well although it was a little out of its depth on the descents (or maybe that was me).

Not a mile muncher though, use my HT Solaris for that, my El Mar is used for local stuff where gears and suspension aren't quite warranted

Currently it's sitting as a 29r with budget 29r wheels and must say I enjoy it equally, really works for eating up the miles...

If rigid single speed is what you really want.

(I have both a swift and a sherpa).
