THREE FORESTS WAY: KIT LIST

The perfect bike might not exist, but if we had to pick one it would be John's custom Chisel build: a rigid aluminium frame with a carbon fork and lightweight components. Aggressive geometry that's light enough to keep up on the road, with burly enough tyres to move quickly across singletrack and fields. Specifically built and optimised for long, fast days on mixed terrain.
