Apologies - not too much to get excited about out here! Just got to get to some proper mountains in Oman, Nepal and India now...

Aware it has still got bits of packing attached and rug is not mine etc.

Good service and quick international delivery from CRC too.

Thanks I will, I tried to pre-empt normal STW comments and missed the most basic fail!

Picnic table behind the saddle is a nice touch.

not sure about the helitape on the headtube and cranks... 😉

Does look good and looks like a cracking spec. But, being honest, it looks like it needs 650b wheels as it's a long bike.

that looks lush - plus it has a really good name

Your travel plans sound good also - if India and ****stan go to war and Nuke each other you'll be grand!

Very nice! Very nearly pulled the trigger on exactly that bike myself.

You mentioned you're overseas, where are you based?

Thanks for the comments will pay more attention to home décor and bike positioning in future!

I'm based in Qatar so right in the middle when it all kicks off with Iran so Nukeproof name very apt.

I think it looks better in photo than real life, not mine just in apartment when I moved in.
