Strengths: Beauty is unparalleled, stiffness and responsiveness to acceleration - no lag whatsoever. Sturdiness makes her perfect for training.Weaknesses: Paint job on the Electric Blue model is matte finish - no protective clearcoat. This is the only model with the matte finish. Some paint chipping has occurred on the chainstay, bottom bracket (from dropped chain), and fork. I sprayed a thorough layer of gloss clearcoat over the frame to mitigate further chipping. Now she's glossy and even more beautiful - color more vibrant now.Bottom Line: I ordered the Electric Blue model of this frame; and it is absolutely beautiful - turns heads everywhere. Campagnolo Veloce groupset, Mavic Aksium wheels were mated with the frame. With instant response to acceleration and great stiffness, the Xperience thrills me every time I mount her.
On long rides (80+ km) the aluminum frame does transmit enough road buzz to make me fantasize about carbon. This is not a light frame, but very sturdy and responsive - perfect for sprinting and training.
Handmade in Italy.
