Any feedback on the ride quality with this frame please?
I'm on the fence between this frame and the Elves Eglath. I was considering the Vanyar Pro, but I found many reviews stating it is stiff in the rear-end - exactly what I want to avoid with this new build. Eglath is said to be very comfy, which I would value (secondary bike, left at parents' home near the mountains).
I had my boyfriend ride the Flyee since I'm not really riding atm and the fit is better for him anyways. He works in a shop that sells a lot of high end, brand name bikes (Colnago, Pinarello, Enve, Wilier etc.) so he gets the opportunity to test ride a lot of different bikes/geometries on a regular basis and has much more nuanced sense of bike geometry than I do. He did a small sprint and asked "does this frame have short chainstays? It feels very snappy and responsive in the back" and I said "yes, they're 408mm." He Also mentioned that he liked how the front end felt and mentioned that if felt like it had a steep head tube angle. I responded that the headtube is not that steep (72 degrees), but the rake is 44mm so that is probably what he was feeling. He likes that twitchy, responsive feeling but mentioned it might not be for everyone.
Overall he said the bike is pretty snappy and accelerates quickly.
