It's pronounced Beefy and apparently B is for burly and the Fe is the symbol for iron... Could be a myth tho. 

 

Edit: Sorry, missed the comments and came to the party late with that one. 

 

Anyway, because I can't find a decent Kingdom Vendetta I'm going back to the Steel option HT. I'm very keen on this Cotic (£549) with the other option being a Ribble HT £499.  Hummm.... they have the blue cotic in stock as a medium! 

Do it!!!!

Yes!!! This thing is so droolworthy. I've had 2 Cotics and I can only say good things about them... the only bad thing is the idiot that bought them a size too small.

And you repeated that mistake on how many bikes?

I "won" a Hub charity auction to buy a Simple at way over the asking price a few years ago.

 

Over the last 18 months I have ridden it more times than everything else put together and I love it.

 

The only thing I regret is that I got rid of the P29 I was running SS at the time. It would be nice to have the choice of a geared HT sometimes..

Have to carry some spares and im old fashioned :whistling:

When you get a dropper you'll have to get rid of the ol' bag. There are plenty of bottle cage or other area tool storage options, just saying. I've gone overboard and now have a tool under my bottle cage and one in the tube roll, can never be too prepared.
