I am fairly happy but would like to draw your attention to the bike's geometry. Even with a longer stem (Thomson elite 135mm), I often wish that the handlebars be further away, by 30mm or so.
Yes thanks for that I have thought about that point, I am fairly short at 170cm so it should not be to much of an issue to set up bike. I have ordered an adjustable stem.
