A FEW WORDS FROM GUY ABOUT HIS SETUP:

"I changed to a 21" ALVX frame after growing a bit over the year and the 20.8" was getting a little small for me, the 21" feels perfect with the top tube being longer so I feel more comfortable riding around but it still has the same short backend for technical tricks.

I chose the limeade colourway because I felt it was the perfect one to set up at this time of year and I haven't rode as funky a colour before. I love the way it stands out and is different to most set ups I've had in the past, especially switching it up with the white tyres that go really well with the white stickers on the frame.

I run a 2.4" tyre on the front and a 2.3" tyre on the back, its just what I have been used to as I have rode these different sizes on my setups for a few years now. The bigger tyre on the front just looks so flush and I use the smaller on the back for more clearance.

I've been riding the new Revolution hub for a good few months now and I honestly could not ask for a better hub. I've changed back and forth between a coaster to cassette over the years and this is the perfect answer between the two. With the Revolution hub being so light like a cassette it helps with my riding all round and having no pedal gap feels so smooth with pedalling around. I have always preferred coasting than having to pedal back but I like the way the cassette feels with cycling so the Revolution is the one! "
