Just pulled the trigger on Ribble Adventure Ti bike as an early Christmas / Birthday pressie to myself
So excited can’t wait for it to arrive!

Nice.

Did you go and try one for size? I'm strongly considering buying something very similar in the new year.

You're lucky, Ive being waiting nearly 12 months for a steel one to review - in fairness, I gave over asking after the first 6 months.

I was having trouble deciding between the Adventure Ti or the CGR Ti for a while. Went with the CGR in the end as I felt it was a bit more versatile and suitable for my use but the Adventure is a lovely looking bike.

That's very relevant to my interests Neil. Is that what you're randonneurring on? How's it been?

Yes I went and tried for size, went medium.

I too have been juggling whether to go for cgr or Ad Ti but in the end felt that my needs were best met with the AdTi’.

Presents you buy yourself are always the best

It's what I will be randonneuring on. I have been waiting for new wheels to arrive and I have swapped the saddle, seat post and bar and didn't want to risk a long one without being 100% on the setup. Actually just got back from it's first 20km tonight and ready to tape the bar now. Got a few shorter rides planned in the next few weeks but hoping to use it for it's first 200km, December 7th.
