RCUK Towers is never short of jaw-dropping machinery but just occasionally a machine comes through the gates that makes even the casual by-stander do a double take.
The Cherubim Sticky proved to be just such a machine, with its super slim pipework, fillet brazing, and pearlescent finish winning the seal of approval from aficionados and aesthetes alike.
But how did it perform on the road? Looks mean little when the rain is hammering down and fifty, hilly miles lie ahead. We spent a month aboard the Sticky, the custom-made product of Japanese craftsman Shin-ichi Konno to discover if looks could be deceiving, or if the performance would match its striking appearance.
