Have two rides on my CS-057.  It feels a little stiffer than my previous LTK-023. I do like the slacker front end and overall the bike seems more flickable and more playful. Probably due to the slightly shorter chainstay.

Overall I really like the frame and think it's a great bargain.

It's crazy how some HT frames cost $2000 and sometimes even more than that.

Rode my -057 yesterday and I continue to like the geometry slightly better than my -036 even though my lap times are a bit faster on the -036.  Having a bit of suspension travel is nice to have on the rough sections but the -057 has better ergonomics for someone my size.
