+1 Jam2 6.8... awesome.
So do I take it your beloved has the Thron and you the Jam?? Thats what I've just bought the Thron. I got the Jam 4 weeks ago and my wife, although very very fit and runs and rides with "no aids" borrowed a few times and said great fun...so Thron purchased! How do you find the Thron?

Spreaders - can I ask what bike and how long did Bike-discount take to deliver..... I was on their web site this afternoon and was just about to buy....but then thought NO, and went to Rutland... think there was 250 quid in it but thought English was worth it?? Spooky you posted this today!!

As soon as they arrive...
