72.8
And handling so far is excellent. Which isn't a shock. But I am still getting through corners with a grin on my face. Gave it some beans today

I might be mistaken about the stiffness. Was rock solid under me. And still smooth as you'd expect from steel.

One of the weirdest oxymoron's I've heard on here

Was just how it came out when combined with the rake being used. I didn't specify 72.8

And a bit of a flash back to last year's kit (and the matchy matchy with the top tube)

How was the Nightriders Nick? The numbers looked down a little in the pics and videos I have seen (I'd meant to come say g'day but got caught up packing for a trip). It's an interesting concept that WRCC more or less tried out up here last year through the streets of Cleveland (Bris suburb), which was a massively popular event (also a CQ Open).
Also as I commented on Insta, the bike looks fantastic mate I am sure you will give it a solid workout.

Numbers were capped intentionally. Last thing Black Sheep wanted was a 50 rider field and carnage. And it worked. Goal was good vibes, good crew and some bite sized entertainment (racing) and it worked perfectly. It was like the Twenty20 version of crit racing.
And the Man Ride will happen again this year. Still deciding on the route. Really hoping we can get a few of the Californian Men of Steel along too. The stats worldwide on how poorly funded mental health is (in spite of its prevalence) is terrible. If these rides can help raise awareness even the tiniest bit then they are a success.
