Wouldn't even need to be a full fairing. Something to keep the wind blast off the chest, sporty-looking. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Just found out it has electronically controlled linked brakes
Apparently it's 'not intrusive' and you wouldn't notice it on the road. Really..... hmm. |

I think it's fine to have these things, electronic rider aids and all the rest, but there should always be the option to switch them off, or have a model that doesn't have them. We all have different riding styles, and perhaps model ranges should reflect this more. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017
