It has the word 'Thylacine' on the cover. Quick Hitchy, run out to the letterbox. Thylo, run down to the newsagents.

Edit. Fark, that pic is a tad big.
 
Newsagent says Wednesday......RIDE says today.

Maybe you subscriber types might actually get it early? If so, if anyone has a scanner can you scan it and e-mail it to me? Ta muchly.

Kickass... why did they put that ugly dude on the front again!? Crikey..... I'll go check the local at lunchtime.

Yep, will do...I dunno whether they mail to the subscribers 1st or not, but soon as I get it, I'll give ya a yell
 
Ah HA!

It's at the printers today, in letterboxes Wednesday.

I got sent a pdf of the review and just asked permission if I can post it. In the interim......

"Thylacine is pioneering uncharted territory with this bike. There is subtle, almost invisible attributes that differentiate the Tephra from nearly everything else out there"

"The Tephra XCR certainly doesn't conform to the geometry blueprint we've come to except as conventional"

"This frame was built for a larger rider with stiffness as a priority so the frame weight represents the upper limit of what we can expect from Columbus XCR as a material. The rest of the build is comprised of solid choices with a few touches of brilliance"

"Is your bike merely a tool for fitness or an expresion of your individuality?....Custom geometry is a ferrous fingerprint to your biological strengths and quirks. It will never feel quite right to any other rider which is precisely the point : It's all you."

Guess you could say I'm a pretty happy chappy! :):cool:
 
Nice one, Thylo! :cool:

Wonder when the issue will hit the stands up here in Tamworth?
 
Well done brother!...post the whole article if they let ya!...we can say we knew ya when ya was just a struggling frame designer/builder with a bad attitude....oh, wait.....:D
 
On ya Thylo.

All that advice you get about crit geometry from nuffies in the BF framebuilding forum has obviously rubbed off.:p
