I haven't weighed it yet but will soon.
When I was carrying the box to the garage I was concerned that I'd been sent an empty box

My Genesis Equilibrium - I'd been hankering after a "proper road bike" in addition to my Tricross for a while, and it was a cheeky early birthday pressie to myself

Nothing wrong with an early birthday present. I'm going to get my retirement bike 10 years early!

Well making up for braking my Spesh Tuesday and then yesterday destroying a tyre on my first attempt to use a turbo(brake block rubbing on the sidewall, thought it was a little to hard going)

My Shand finally arrived an hour ago, sad it was so late(should have been delivered end of April/start of may) but well worth the wait.

Yes yes I know lol

I want to go M520 but I really need to go for something with a flat so I can still use it for quick rides to work and football etc.
