Damn you CFH that’s what I was going to say!

I do like the look of the Sonder bikes in general. You taken it for a spin yet OP?

Indeed, I took it from my hoose in the north of Glasgow via the Forth and Clyde and Union canals to Edinburger then bought a bag of cans for the train home.

It was most enjoyable topping out at 20 mph along the flats on 47mm tyres!

Proper gravel ride up from Drymen to Inversnaid and back planned for this weekend.

I dearly wanted the Titanium version but bank balance said no.

Still trying to acclimatise to gravel bike geometry. Resisting the urge to put a 110mm stem on it.

Nice that. If Planet X hadn’t been knocking out the Tempest’s for so little money, I was going to have a Sonder. Like the stealthy colour. Patio in a better state that ours 😉

I am getting used to seeing gravel bikes and like them now. I prefer a retro mtb tbh for the same type of riding.

Looks great. Enjoy.
