…and its a gravel bike. What?
I hope it's great because that name needs some recognition.

That's a mountain bike. Just with silly bars, small brakes and skinny tires.

Looks good though :hmmm:

The next time we find something to fling our poo at, I'll make sure you're invited.

I like it, probably won’t like the price though.

I've been looking at the on-one hideousness this week and can't help thinking it'd be my perfect commute bike (mix of gravel paths, road and bridlepaths). They've not got any in my size though until end of next week apparently. Possibly. I've got until then to come to my senses.

I’ve been looking at the on-one hideousness this week and can’t help thinking it’d be my perfect commute bike (mix of gravel paths, road and bridlepaths).

When I first saw this I thought it was hideous. However I keep being drawn back to it. With the 20% off (which ithink ends today) it seems like a cheap way to get the frame and carbon fork. I could fit the SRAM Apex kit to my Charge Plug, fit my flat bars and SLX kit to this. I probably won't buy it though.

How would a bike such as this with a 65 degree head angle ride with a rigid fork? I was under the impression you didn't need such a slack head angle when there's no suspension to compress.
