Well, finally got out for a decent ride. What a bike! Pedals great, very comfortable. Super quiet and smooth on the descents. Still need to get my suspension sorted, it's not miles off but needs some tweaking. Overall, bike feels super stable and confident. I was a bit worried that it would feel harder to turn on the tight stuff as the reach is 20mm longer than my other bike. Honestly I'm not finding it any harder on the really tight stuff than the Murmur. You definitely need to stay centred on the bike, but it's a really natural feeling position and when you're there it corners super well.
PR'd on a trail I've ridden many, many times and honestly I felt like I was going really slow! Looking forward to gettiing more time on it.
I called FedEx and my bike is being returned to sender... Privateer has been really helpful, hopefully they get it back soon and can get it shipped back to me again.
It has been a long process. When it was stuck in customs, FedEx said it was because the Export Broker used a PO Box instead of a physical address. Privateer got all that fixed and then I provided my Importer Identity form to FedEx and had not heard anything for a week so I called today and they are showing that the bike is already back on the UK.

So wait..... will I have the same scenario?? FedEx has called me twice over the package. First call was to fill out some paperwork. Then a call last Wednesday over the content, wheel size and bike weight. He said all the paperwork looked good and I should receive the bike Friday 12/17....
I've called twice and left a voice mail to see where the bike is. The tracking number still shows it sitting in NJ
I am not sure. Mine was sitting in TN and FedEx never called or emailed me to get the paperwork. I was had been calling them and submitted all my paperwork but it must not have been fast enough. And for mine, they used a new tracking number to send it back. So my original tracking still shows that it is in TN even though it is not.

I have a P2, I have the 70cc oneup pump with EDc tool and tyre plugs under the bottle cage, tube strapped to the top tube by the seattube. Does fit a 600ml bottle (just). Had to get a specialized zee cage as it's one of the only ones slim enough to fit the pump and a bottle without hitting the shock or top tube.
