if one were in the market for a touring bike for example to do LEJOG, this is a good deal non?

Providing you take a 57cm frame

the frames come up large on the galaxy so I am told so this is more of a 60cm frame in reality..

"Due to the geometry of the Galaxy range frame these bikes are large for the listed frame sizes. i.e. a 54cm is closer to a traditional 57cm, a 57cm closer to a traditional 60cm and a 60cm a traditional 63cm"

Thing is for 750 quid this looks like a bit of a bargain. Might be just the job for LEJOG. Especially as I can probably finance it @ 0% through work...
