Zippy-I chose a Kappa K20 as my new school ride when i found out the geometry was practically the same as
a Hutch but with a 21 inch top tube.It is clearly the fastest bike i have ever ridden and feels unbelievably stable in the air.
Although i haven't won any finals on it (mainly down to the pesky Flying Fox-Miles Kirby who ALWAYS beats me!)i have had a few seconds and i would reccomend the bike to anyone.
