Anyone got one!
I’d like to know how you find it, hows the sizing etc
I’m very tempted by the turd brown, I like it a lot
I currently you have a fearless vulture though and they be are so similar. Can I spend that much, just ‘cus I like the paint job?

Anyone want to buy a vulture frame and fork

Haha, maybe I should read my posts before posting.. I’ve not been drinking, nor am I a pirate, honestly!

Considered a Fearless Warlcok? Looks like an absolute cracker of a frame.

Probably no help ha but the Mehteh was on my shortlist with the Fairlight Faran2, which I eventually bought.

I've got a warlock. Only ridden it once since I finished building it last week but it's bloomin fantastic. I've got it setup with 27.5 X 2.2 tyres

@rOcKeTdOg, what size is that? Sorry to tag on to the OPs post but thinking of one of these too, or the aforementioned Faran2, or an Escapade... So much (but also so little) choice!

Considered a Meteh. Went for a Warlock.

Colour on the Warlock was the hardest choice. Love the olive green but somehow ended up with the Grey. Yet to build it though (brifters/mech/cassette being the sticking point). I’ve been waiting for RD’s review - looking forward to it. Hope you have a good weekend down there 👍

Do they really supply the Warlock without bolts for the bosses? ( Looks like your fork has none)

Got bolts for the bottle cages but not for the fork.

It’s a tough choice for sure
I love the vulture and have massive respect for Tim.
I was eagerly anticipating the warlock and I am still very tempted but...
I have just built up a rigid 29er for heavy duty Bikepacking, so after something for a racier (sort of) build and it looks like the mehteh might fit that bill a little better...
Decisions decisions.

Isn't the Kepler the racier of the 2 Brother gravel bikes?

It is but despite that the mehteh would suit my needs better...

Just wondering what you are wanting the Mehteh to do that the Vulture or 29er wont? Seems a little like you're filling a gap that isn't really there?

I mean n+1 and all that, no reason not to if you want it. Just a thought.

@chrisdw Mehteh is to replace the vulture frame... just for a change, that’s all

Ah makes sense! Would have known that if I read your OP properly 😜

Check out the geometries using geometrygeeks.bike really good for comparing little differences between a few frames.
