I loved Claire Beaumont of Condor Cycles & Rapha-Condors great review of Condor Shorts, 8/10 and I am sure there was no conflict of interest at all
Great touring piece and great shots of our Shutt Jersey.. Thanks guys and nice surprise for Simon and I

I may be wrong, Terry, but if that was originally in the May issue, that must mean Claire would have been writing that in February or something. I don’t think she was working for them, then. It’s not been long. Anyhoo, we love bike shop people’s opinions on kit as a general rule. They tend to be the harshest critics of anything that’s a bit dodgy. If we make a terrible recommendation, we can hide in our tower in Croydon. If someone in a bike shop takes your money, the good ones tend to feel pretty embarrassed when you take it back and glare at ‘em.
Ah, so she got the job then.. and she does race too so probably a fair assessment.. Not that you’d catch me in anything but bibs!

The rider on the cover is on a BMC Street Fire SSX01. Have you reviewed this bike in any back issues?
Hi Dan, sorry I missed this. No, not reviewed; just a cover star. We do have a BMC AlpenChallenge AC02 coming up in April, I believe.
