for the catalogue spec

Yeah, assumed an F8 from the description in the listing.

Is there an article in the Gallery detailing specs on the F8? I had a look in the Pace section but nothing; maybe something in one of the magazine scans?

just editing my last comment answering the the question you were simultaneously typing

Big, ain't she?

Hmmmmmm, oh well. That's the beauty of impulse buying i guess

Shall see just how big when it arrives.

I'm 6'4" with 35" legs and long arms, i hope i'm tall enough!

Big red Bertha!

I'm dead envious!! Also being of the lanky persuasion! I would have thought it'd be just right. My Dave Yates is 21.5" with a 24" top tube and is the best fitting bike I've got.

It'll be 8sp XT with Hope Hubs/Mono Mini's and RC36 Forks as that's what i already have.

I'll try and keep the other bits UK too if poss, but i need to get them so it may be a case of what i can find.

Not sure whether to keep the Middleburn Duo's, really would prefer a triple and i have an XT to go on. Selling the middleburn would fund the bars/stem/saddle.

What fork travel is the F8 optimised for?

I assume it's 80 - 100mm??
