That'll be a happy new year for someone then! Perhaps they'll grace the forum with a visit en route.

Hi,
I'm the lucky new owner!  Amazing to find a quality bike for sale which actually fits me.  So far only ridden her home and fitted my Super C bar bag and panniers (had a rack fitted when I bought the bike.)  I'm very pleased with her.  An excellent comfy and stable ride and the Rohloff is a revelation after my other bikes.

Hi Diapason,

What is your height please and your inner legs ?

I' m very  curious how look your bike with rack installed !

If you want to show us !

Many thanks for your welcome, Danneaux.  I'm rushing around for the next few days - sadly non-commutable distances - but hope to get on the bike next week and will get some pictures then.  Julio, I'm short 5'5" and inside leg 29".  The bike fits me well with about 5" of seatpost exposed and the reach is comfortable.  I didn't want drops as an old arm injury (motorbike RTA) makes it uncomfortable to put too much weight on my wrist & forearm.  I'm not going to be riding over the Andes, but will use the bike for local days out - sometimes using a trailer for my dog.  Looking forward to riding in Spain next Summer.
