The new Fools Gold ( coming soon!! ) is also a fab colour but just didn\u2019t hit the spot for them. Off the black frameset went to Cyclone and they worked their magic. This Candy Red is off the scale fabulous. We had to pull in a favour to get the black decals, for some reason these are super thin on the ground and it all came together in the end.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other than that a rad and useful build up with a Shimano GRX600 double group, Halo wheels and tyres with Genetic finishing kit. SKS Chromoplastic guards and a Topeak Super Tourist DX rack for some utility and versatility.
