Nice but needs a proper rear mudguard if it is going to get dirty, especially in wet mud.

I don't think it's even likely to be ridden in the rain so mud shouldn't be an issue.

Whilst pretty, it's proportions look all wrong to me. Plus it doesn't look more than a standard bike with an exhaust, paint and proper tyres as opposed to the stupid semi off road tyres that are worse for 95% of people who'd buy one as they come from the factory. Sure there's more to it, but it's a meh from me.

I really don't like it, it looks heavy and top heavy at that

It's too high, but because of where the pipes are, you can't lower it!
Perhaps banging a 19" wheel on it would suit it better.
Really like it.............from the headstock backwards

I love mine - but those end cans are dumb.
TBH looks nothing more and a posh fork and a gold chain.
Mind you the normal XC would look good all BRG ....

They'll probably sell some Official Triumph Hipster stick on mud kit for it...Count Steer wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 8:49 amI don't think it's even likely to be ridden in the rain so mud shouldn't be an issue.

If i had it I'd wrap it satin black, including the stupid gold forks!
