    VITUS eSommet with a Boxxer Front end Upgrade

    Yes had to purchase the wider spacer for the base of the steer tube, it was a bit of a sod to fit but patience is key I just kept tapping it on with a large ring spanner until flush.

    I'm not sure, they are not that twisty where I ride fast downhill, but I did get my quickest times around the circuit at Ashton Court in Bristol and some of those are tight and fast, but flat-ish, the wheels are 27.5 so do turn in a bit better than the 29's
