I usually do not want to comment too much on the bikes until I have some mileage in them.
It takes some time to get over the euphoria of a new bike as well as enough mileage in real use to get a firmer impression.
So a recent 180km ride into neighboring Desaru, Malaysia was a good chance to check out the bike.
This is a road ride with a large 45pax group of various capabilities though everyone else were on road bikes.
Roads vary from very good to beaten up, with a nice mix of climbs, headwind and heat.
So this ride represents the multi functional aspect I have gotten this bike for. (ie. road riding as a 'make do road bike', while not getting dropped)
A short boat ride over to Malaysia.
Welcome to Pengarang, Malaysia. Sun and headwinds galore.
