Cheers, the guy at Stif says it's 'proper bright' in the flesh, more so than the photos suggest. This appeals to me 8)

Some waterproof socks sound cool too though

I have a new to me soul frame sitting in my conservatory out of the way. Just spending time thinking about what I need to buy for it or transfer from my older bike. Excited about the day I'll take some time and a big coffee & build it up.

As promised - my new bike 😀

The excitement was initially tempered by being sent the wrong size frame and then the replacement being lost by Fedex (!) but it was worth the wait. The green is very very bright 8)

Oh, and the forks are AMAZING. A worthy alternative to the ubiquitous Pikes IMO.

Oooo! Nice. Garden's a mess, mind you! 😉

No remote dropper? Seems a slight oversight on such a lovely build!

Cheers guys, reverb on the way. I'm not sure what a superlight is but I think it's short travel? The heckler is basically a poor man's (or more discerning man's) Bronson, same geo and travel but single pivot and cheaper as a result. The single pivot simplicity appealed to me, the green is a bonus!

The heckler is brilliant, the green is awesome. Enjoy. I am almost jealous (except that I am waiting on my new frame so am excited also, no need for green eyes too)

Waiting for that dispatch email is torture. The FedEx guy decided to deliver my frame to the pub down the road and then claim he had delivered it to my house. Crazy bastard
