No wrap, that's as it comes.

Is that the karve evo rsx?

No, it's the Evo RS. The RSX is the blue one with red zebs.

That is absolutely stunning, I was feeling anxious about what the RS finish would be, but that's phenominal! Can't wait to see mine now!

Yeah I was a bit the same as all the images of the RS were ai shite, but it looks spot on in person. If you zoom in it has almost like a metallic/speckled finish to it. Can't explain, but it looks nice tbf.

It looks much more black in your pic, whereas the official pics make it look more grey/silver

It really is one of the most beautiful bikes out there right now...

I'm jealous !

First ride, goes well! 80% Turbo - 10% left
Bottomless feel, quite nimble for a big travel bike. Feels smaller compared to Cube 177.

Is it poppy in any way? Rode the Velduro 170/170 and was surprised at how poppy it was.

Depends how you like to set the suspension up, stock the new Rockshox stuff lacks compression so can feel quite lively.

Spoke to my shop today, my medium karve evo RSX isn’t due till the first week in September. Quite disappointing tbh, but I’m out with cracked ribs just now anyway.

Who has dates to collect their bikes & where from?

I’ve ordered mine from sprockets in Kilmarnock. I was told August when I ordered the bike, haven’t received an update yet. I’ll probably give them a call tomorrow .

Mine Rsx was Ordered way back in early may was told probably end of September, coming from mountain mania Carterton Oxfordshire

No I’m getting an xl

Large, to be honest I’ve never weighed a bike.
Bottle not included but fidlock base is.

You are joking , they fit the base but no bottle

Why is that weird? Most bikes come with a bottle cage but no bottle.
