Strengths: Very responsive and quickWeaknesses: Paint chips easilyBottom Line: I bought this frameset because of it's versatility... you can build this frameset up as a single speed or geared with a rear derailleur. Also, can accomodate disc or cantilever brakes too. Since it's built using Scandium tubing.. It makes for a potentially light Cyclocross bike.
The welds look top notch and the rear seat stays are curvacious (helps for a compliant ride). The only thing I can complain about is the paint quality. Though it's a beautiful mirror green, it sure chips easily.
I have taken this bike out a couple of times and have used it on various types of terrain. Whether on or off road, I have found it a joy to ride. The bike is for someone who wants a race bike. It's responsive and relatively stiff. Though not one of the stiffest frames out there, but I generally do not like an overly stiff frame (that's my personal preference).
