Strengths:    QUALITY CARBON FRAME.VERY STIFF,BEEFY BOT.BRAC.DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THIS BABY BREAKING OR CRACKING.NEVER SEEN CURVES ON A WOMAN THAT LOOK AS GOOD AS THE CURVES ON THIS BIKE.BEST CLIMBING BIKE I HAVE EVER RIDIN

Weaknesses:    NONE

Bottom Line:

STANDOVER ON MY OLD TRECK WAS 81.1 ON A 58CM. 2000RS AEGIS IS 81.7 ON A 56CM.YOU ARE ABLE TO RIDE ONE SIZE SMALLER,A HUGE ADVANTAGE.AND YES!YOU CAN STILL GET FITTED WITH OUT AN EXTRA LONG STEM.SET TUBE HAS A SHARP EDJETION ANGLE.ITS THE MOST COMFORTABLE BIKE I'VE RIDIN.THE REAR TRIANGLE IS SMALL AND TIGHT,TRANSMITING A WHOLE LOT OF POWER!IF YOU LOVE CARBON FIBER RODE FRAMES LOOK NO FURTHER.
