Easy done on that bit as well, nice winding downhill Tarmac. Although when I was down and rode that hill it was so cold and the wind at that speed added about -10 windchill.

Never heard of Orbea, but thats probably just my ignorance. Good spec that. I'd personally favour a Fox fork over Rock Shox though.

Hard tails are all 29's too.

I'm a bit old school. 29 just seems wrong!!

Are they blimey i knew they were a good bike but 4-5month wait is a bit much. Nothing else really stands out for me at the moment what about the spectral 9.0ex with the money saved in buying it swap out the revelations for pikes and then thats a pretty damn sorted bike for less than 3k or what stu said
