any weight info???
Bought the R&M delight Mountain for its Rollhof with electric change and belt drive .... cleaning after a winter ride is a doddle and there is virtually no maintenance which is great BUT it weighs 27Kilos which is HEAVY compared to my old Focus Jam 2 @ 23 kilos ...
This is the same potential disaster as POO -Tin's oil when china invades Taiwan ... the world will shudder to a stop......bring back manufacturing to home countries ...stop relying on imports ....and as for UK government paying farmers to grow wild flowers and electricity panels when they...
Its still got a bl**dy derailleur. Until flappy paddles and double clutch gearboxes with belt drive are available its still old hat.
