GregP are they happy with it what's the build quality like? I'm looking at the road version. Still tempted for the Ti version.

Are they happy with what? Oh - are we back to P-X? Yes, indeed. There seems to be an almost default of owning a Stealth if you spend any time on TriTalk. PHENOMENAL value for money. And the blue is *incredibly* blue. Their steel frames are great, too. 220, IIRC, loved their Ti frames - never ridden Ti mind - doesn't actually appeal.

Just been reading on a cycling forum about an 80yo guy from Shropshire who managed to do 59min 15s for a 25mile time trial at the weekend!! That's amazing!! Blott - the bike you posted abou tlooks v. nice. Have you looked at this bike shop, supposed to be very good and reasonably local to you (well sort of!) - fatbirds.co.uk |

Surely that's no more local than Chelmer Cycles, or at least (shudder) 53-12?

Possibly not GreP, but I read somewhere that Fat Birds have a good selection of ladies bikes, and last season had their own ladies pro team. Plus I know nothing about Chelmer Cycles!

Chelmer Cycles are hidden away out the back of the cricket ground. Most of my bikes over the years have come from them - although they have a deep seated mistrust of triathletes... Top shop, but far from cheap. Never shopped in 53-12, although I know people who are *not* fans. The Fat Birds website looks good, I must say. |

Agree GreP, they have a non typical range of bikes, and from the ones Blott has mentioned she is interested in I thought Fat Birds looked a good call.
