Took 4 days to arrive great discounts at the moment aswell. It came with e7000 shifter and southpaw under bar dropper remote aswell which were going to be the only changes I was going to make. so a result there.

4 days ! and those changes are what I would make as well.

I've had a 29 er in my shopping cart for 2 weeks whilst procrastinating, during that time, the price went down and now this, it must be a sign.

Did you need to swap the brakes over, eg rear to left lever ?

Yes brakes are wrong way around. I am going to see how I get on with them before I swap them. I was very close to getting the 29er have always had 27.5 so i bottled it in the end and stuck to what i no. They are mega spec for the money even before the discounts

Order just placed :)

I'll definitely have to swap the brakes over, I think in a panic situation I'd grab a fistful of front brake by mistake otherwise

Monday/Tuesday (29 Signature) i think. I ordered it from a shop in the U.K. (Bike Active) - they matched the discount and will support any warranty issues.

first blast out up whinlatter. The grip off the plus size tyres is unreal. I am normally a bit slower when its dry and dusty up whinlatter but the bike felt so planted it gave me massive confidence. I am loving it?

bike looks great LeeRoy!
and fantasic shipping times tbh

how are you finding it any niggles?
Only niggle was the brakes being the wrong way around for the UK. But to be honest I am used to it after 2 rides so not going to bother changing it. Other than that its awesome

My new Commencal Meta HT Power turned up last week with the brakes in the Euro/US position. So to avoid any mishaps out on the trails I just swapped the hoses over. I should have asked them to do it for me.

It only required two small nuts to be removed. I followed the instructions here:
