    but yeah, the second canyon should come with an audible warning for people with epilepsy, to give them time to look away.

    Bontrager's bog standard helvetica clone is even worse.

    Quite like Lotto's Ridleys but this one's my favourite, aside from the gangly stem.

    Love the colours, but I wish the seatpost wasn't so much narrower than the tubes. Otherwise it's a stunner, wheels are gorgeous too.

    Agreed. :(

    The Propel SL 0 in those colours would be insane.
