At £500 it will sell quickly.

I'd have it myself if I didn't already have an XL (2002/3), they're great.
Mine has a Cane Creek rear air suspension. It's lush.

Also have a Qnt (2007) & a Vortex fs (2011)

It's the oldest of the three trikes I have but the lightest and most fun to ride.

Good luck with the sale.

Sold - it was priced to sell.  Happy that someone else will use it and it gives me more space.

Had a few years of fun, then got into time trialing.  Got it with the intent of using it for longer Audaxes, got up to 300km on The Rural South.

I may have joined the dark side. Sadly a gammy leg at the moment means it's likely to be a couple of weeks before I get to try it out properly  :(

Otherwise, I'm excited to give it a go.

I quite fancy the idea of a vortex, but fear it would result in rearrangement of teeth and spine on the Fenland roads

This 'Vortex' is the 2011 full suspension model.
Not the later VTX pure racing machine.
Pretty much identical to the current Sprint FS.
The suspension is Elastomer and takes the sting out though it's not as good as the XL's rear air shock.
