Looks pretty sorted and decent vfm.

Not in the market for a new hardtail but would be right up there if I was

I was tempted by one but couldn’t be bothered to wait months (assuming they will have them in a few months). I am so fickle I would have changed my mind 5 times before the bike arrived!

I had a look, specced up a bike and was given a delivery date in mid June.

Looks decent but 27.5 wheels would put me off (probably shouldn’t)

The 27.5 wheels are why I like it, I don’t like 29″ wheels.

They showed it off back when 27.5 wheels were still a thing, seems to be only becoming available now. To be fair, it itooks ace. .

Ribble availability is weird – “in stock” bikes have March delivery dates!!!

I would buy one of their steel adventure bikes if it would turn up next week, but…..
