Finally the Peregrine prototypes are here!
After a number of setbacks and unexpected delays, we took delivery of four frames and forks yesterday. There are a few things which already I can say will need changing for the production framesets, but overall I'm extremely pleased with how they've come together.
I built this one up quickly with a few bits I had getting around, and initial impressions are excellent. Quick and light feeling to the ride, but reassuringly stable. These will be extensively tested over the summer by a few eager volunteers in a number of guises- geared road tourer, doublespeed rambler, we might even try a Shimano Alfine group -more reports to come...
The beautiful solid silver Peregrine headbadge with thanks to Jen Green at headbadges.com (silver Swift headbaadges are also now available).


This is from Frank in the Netherlands - a very familar setup!
I really like this build from Lars in Sweden, though I fear I may like his whiskey collection even more ;-)
