It seems team GB have faith in their own abilities

We certainly are, and I should have mentioned Mo Farah's win from last night in the 10,000 metres race. It seems he has a chance of winning the 5000 metres too, which would upset the form book.

Jason Kenny's sprint in the velodrome was something else today, not only because of the gold he won but the speed. 44 mph average on the flat is an astonishing speed on a bicycle.

The Brownlee brothers success just scored in the Triathlon with gold and bronze medals means Team GB have matched the Beinjing Olympics gold score with many more events still to come.

Tony,must say the design of the rear is typical of Honda-looking at the manufacturing techniques there was high tooling costs involved. What happened to it? Why did they not continue manufacture? I suspect very expensive?

Looking at the geometry I'd expect they had a few complaints about broken seat posts or seat tubes, too much form over function?

I've never heard of that happening on these. Tim Snaith of 50cycles used to ride around town on their own one and he's a big chap, far from being a lightweight. A to B tested one and were very impressed, and they've never published anything adverse about it.
