Bike PerfectThe bike feels brilliantly fast on the tarmac, and I found its nature encouraged me to push hard on the road and carry good speed as I would with a road bike.
CyclistThe Grail really impressed me with its sheer speediness, and although the bike isn't the lightest out there, it propels up hills effortlessly and traces down them with confidence.
