Strengths: Very tough bike that can take a beating. I can ride off curbs and take bone-jarring asphalt bumps with no damage Would not hesitate to take anywhere anytime. Light, agile, responsive. Ultegra setup slick and reliable.Weaknesses: Stock geometry tough to deal with. Top tube seems excessively long, required dropping back to a stem 20mm shorter and still seems too long. Stock cassette not suitable for climbs. Noisy brakes with almost no adjustment (minor irritation). Stock Vittoria tires are crap, only about 500 miles of riding, 95% on pavement and they were shot.Bottom Line: I bought this bike for exercise and commuting. I live in a "biking" community with a wide variety of trails, bike paths and country roads. I wanted a bike that could be ridden in all sorts of conditions. This bike does all fairly well. Commuting, long country rides are no problem. Finished in top 15 on three charity road rides.
Favorite Ride: Local
Price Paid:
$1900.00
Purchased At: LBS Closeout
Bike Setup: Stock other than Koobi PRS Century saddle, PD-M324 pedals, shorter stem, and changed cassette for better climbing performance.
