My new commuting hack, currently sporting 40c tyres, went for a ride over the Chase with the kids earlier, seemed more at home over there than on the road. Will be swapping the tyres for something sensible very soon.

Planning on building up my old 29er Inbred into a "Hybred" with narrow flat bars and ends, 40c tyres and 1x gears. Want to use it for road, gravel, 40 mile commute. It should be good for all that, shouldn't it?

Genesis CDF for me, cheap, versatile, will do singletrack one day and 120km on the road the next.

Ritchey Swiss cross steel frame carbon fork! Great fun, happy to ride all day or race flat out! For sale now though, change in life means it’s not seeing day light.

Early birthday present of some Ortlieb bags for the Rove or Axis TT.

Cheers for the pics guys, some cracking bikes there....

Love the Vagabond and the CDF..... That's what I'm after I think, can't decide between the two. My brain says CDF as it is more road orientated and I have a Swift coming for off road touring..... BUT.... My heart longs for the Vagabond, it just looks.... Right....

Reviews of both are great.... Help me make a decision!!!

And if anyone has a Vagabond or CDF in large for sale let me know, full bike or frame.

Happy Christmas all 🙂
