You know that Pace RC303…
Well, I rode it on last night’s marathon excursion around Macclesfied forest - it’s ace. Really good fun to ride and it didn’t batter my spine like I was expecting it to. It’s very nimble and feels really at home on steep technical stuff, both up and down. Come and try it yourself, if you think you might like something along those lines.

Mmm… ‘marathon excursion’. Was a blumin good ride, if a bit slippy slidy in places.
The Pace did look extremely purdy I must admit, I especially like the finish and the detailing of the curvy seat stay brace - probably a good job they don’t do it in my size or even the Cove might’ve seen an upgrade.
I still feel bad though about exclaiming “what - you mean didn’t stop for a pee up that hill ? …..”.

Are there track dropouts availble for the Pace, Tim?

Soon, if not already.

Bit ugly though, innit

It’s alright built up - I quite like the look of it. Mind you, I did think the old ones were horrid.

Sure - are you hard enough?

in places,
is it hard enough to withstand the crayons crash test dummy approach to riding?

Gil already has track ends made Matt.
Much nicer in real life than on the Tinternet though. Saw the frame only in my local. Also like the grey/silver look.
Not my cup of tea though. Some nice touches including the rear cable routing where it kicks it out at a better angle.
