Surely having the bars that high is going to royally screw up the handling given it's pretty high at the front anyway? And interesting you've gone for normal 29 rather than plus tyres?

Those Plus bikes do look good and a likely upgrade from my standard jones spaceframe one day when that style of riding becomes the primary rather than the secondary.

Can you explain to me how to put the headset and fork together? 😛

I think that's the first bike you've ever owned that looks like it fits you.

I've got an 800mm flat bar you can borrow if you want to try a lower bar position?

They do come with instructions now
Whatcha getting confused with?
Steerer is separate to the fork so you line it all up and insert (using a mallet) the steerer.

It was a little joke aimed at Nige. 😡
No mallets required if you do it right. 😉

I've done more than my fair share of them and a mallet (rubber headed) helps no end.
The 23" demos just had the same treatment 8)

I could show you a very simple trick where you'd no longer need your mallet. 🙂

This is quite a nice riding bike 🙂

It feels so small now after initially feeling big
