Arrived home today at 3 30 pm with my new P7 frame, by 7 30 bike completed, indexed gears and went for a ride.

What a lovely bike to ride, perfect sizing, 21Inch frame, I am 6ft 2in.

Spec...Fox rl120 fork, avid juicy 5 brakes, Sram X9 rear mech, LX front mech, X9 shifters, Easton EA50 post, specialised stem and riser bar, DT swiss wheels, trulativ hollowtech crank

Noooooooooooooooo

looks cool

4 hours, took me 2 weeks to re build

How's the steel in terms of cushioning your ass?

Mike,

Its the cost, maybe a respray and new stickers sometime, was hanging on to see how the bike felt with 120mm travel, I do have the option with this fork to increase travel to 130mm, may do that before thinking of new forks.

Gritty,

the steel frame feels good, took it down some rough lanes last night, will test today at Afon or Cwm Carn. Feels good climbing I think thats as important almost as the downs.
