I think it's too small for me, which is a shame.
To help Steph out,
I might be able to help with delivery to the RB National in Reeth if I can pick it up before Saturday. Or at a future RB Yorkshire/N.Lincs meet if you don't mind the wait :D

P.S. I know Steph and I remember this bike.
 
Implying?

Hi Ben, it is a great bike, looks fantastic even next to my Giant Trance X1.

Are suggesting you take it/me with you to a RETROBIKE event?
And sell it there? When are these happening? Sounds fun.

LightWeight

It is a surpringly light MTB, I haven't got accurate bathroom scales though.

FLUFFY CHICKEN/BEN have you got accurate digital scales? Wanted to see how much the ALMEGA weighs. You in/free this afternoon/evening?

The ALMEGA is nearly as light my old rigid Cannondale M700, this doesn't weigh much more, the Cannondale frame only weighed 3.2lb's.

Surprising how long the paint has lasted on the ALMEGA, I remember my BOSS and CANNONDALE (Both ALU frames), were flaking paint with a couple of years of being used.

The ALMEGA rides very well.
