After riding this frame for 6 weeks, I love the way it soaks up bumps, goes up hills and turns in. The feel is something different and for me coming from 30-40lb bikes of many years ago it took a while to get used to it.
I felt like I was going to break it the first time I rode it. It's sort of like your first balsa wood plane, you have to play with it and learn to trust it before you throw it hard between trees. Well, I'm throwing this thing now and enjoying it.
I've made a few adjustments to the setup and although it's gained some weight, it does everything I ask of it and still puts a smile on my face. It goes anywhere and everywhere with me from now on.
