Definitely looks better in its current guise! The flowers make it. Not too keen on the white cockpit though, wish my girlfriend would ride Wink

6.5/10

I would have to agree on the fork, it is a place holder until can find something nice in 1" 1/8. I wanted the carbon Axon but the u.k distributor said they had stopped making it in 1" 1/8 but the regular Axon shares all of the internals. Hoping to find a used sid or pos fit a lefty.

fit a lefty! would be rad

8/10. V nice. Maybe needs a chain guide. Not a fan of purple stuff with black, orange ftw.

Is that the Peak District?

TBH I think its a 8/10, looks like you've put some work into getting the cables neat and you've got a lot of stuff on the bike but it looks nicely placed, a practical bike

Cheers, chainguides aren't worth the mud attraction for the few times it'd stop a dropped chain to me. Definitely going to get a small bash though as the BB is pretty low. It's the Quantocks although I definitely plan on some Peaks riding soon!

Nice Radon with a great spec! I'd love to have a shot one one. Jealous of the bottle mount, although perhaps not the saddle bag! 8/10

8/10 for your Radon. Decent frame with a very good spec! what rise are those bars?
Here is my baby. Got some deathgrips, and a hope oval chainring. Think everything is done now but we will see.

Can I just say having owned a Marin that that is off the scale and not in a good way.
