C2W Fairies have been around work this week and the box arrived

Time to assemble and actually read the instructions as there are some funny bits and a bottle of Alpacin Caffine Shampoo

Stop off for a new bike shot

Know what it is then?

Had to test it on the rough stuff and it's nice

End of the commute home

It's surprisingly complaint there the tyres help but there is flex in the bar which is nice and there is definatley something going on in that seat post/top tube interface or the stays to give some give. Still quite snappy off the lights bit obviously not in the same league as my defy.

I really like the look of these but I'm put off by those bars so it will be interesting to hear your feedback after a few more miles..

Is it just the angle that the shot is taken from but the saddle in the first photo looks like its so nose down that i would fear gentlemans sausage and stem interface!

Yeah saddle was a little nose down but sorted that - literally built and then ridden home!!

edit - there is no stem to hit it's lower than the TT!!

Bars are well bars, I've never been a full on drops rider but it's comfy on the hoods and the tops

Funny looking handlebars for a mountain bike. It is a mountain bike right?

Lol the bars are getting the most questions, had a full audience in the office when it was assembled, from a distance it just looks like a bit is missing
