This is the only one of the collection I haven't actually seen in the metal....so looking forward to the next Retro ride out. Glad I could help towards a fantastic build with the wheels. The black wall ritcheys are just right
The Salsa is outstanding as always too - and a rider (that pic came out really well with the portrait feature!) Always good to ride out with someone that trusts your wheel builds!
Here's some that I took but my phone isn't as good as yours!




Dry chain Kestrel didn't have the same panache as the flawless Salsa!

Cheers

Even with a dry chain, that Kestrel is well sexy in the flesh
Nice pics too pal, thanks

Very nice!

Would love to hear about the build spec and how it rides compared with the a la Carte.

Well after 27 miles in the saddle today I can honestly say that this is one of the sweetest bikes ive ridden, the slightly longer stem than mt other goat makes it less twitchey, it was comfortable while being responsive and predictable. Lovely feel to it, im in love, just off to clean it now as its absolutely covered in sust

Thats another set of wheels that didn't fail mate @boy"O"boy

Wonderful to see it being ridden and enjoyed

I try and use them all mate, only ones I haven't ridden are the FUNK and Yates Vulcan.

I must say this Goat is up there with the Salsa for ride quality. Gnats cock in it

That has all the soul i need on an MTB. Perfect build. (a Breezer hite rite would do fine on her)
