Thanks, Yep it's pretty sweet, except the brakes get really loud as soon as they get wet, and it's been raining every morning up here for a week.

Rode in to work today for the first time - 15Km from Everton Park to Albert St took 50min so that's 18Km/hr I think.

Those tyres have a continuous center line down the middle - pretty good compromise for hardpack.
