Well I decided to take advantage of the CRC £299 offer on the Vitus Alios and asked them to deliver it today, thankfully I ordered it before the price went back up
Well its arrived and I've done the bits of assembly, taken it up the road and down again, to check it all works.
I'm currently waiting for Mrs Jeltz to arrive home and take over the looking after kids so I can take it out for a proper go. Initial impressions are very good and living on a steep hill I was rather surprised how easy it was to get up in comparison with the cheap Raleigh MTB I have
I don't know why but I was expecting the saddle to be a little uncomfortable, but its fine and I think I have the fit pretty much sorted but now doubt I'll have the off tweak to do.
It came with some cheap lights, a bell and reflectors none of which fit the bike, but since I wasn't expecting them in te 1st place it's a minor thing! Also came with come road pedals and cleats, shame I'm going to be using spd's, but they may come in handy later.
Just hoping the rain stops and it brightens up in the next hour.
