Paul, the bike rides great. The 48mm tires help but Even without that the frame is just very body gentle. Handling I’d stable, a bit slower than the Bleriot but not much and that may be me getting used to it. I’ve put the Brooks saddle back on and all feels great.
It would be very hard to go to a less relaxed bike ever again. I like the chainstays on this one, would not, for me, want them longer.
It was a great choice.
The ones that have not hit yet, that dark gold would have been tempting as I like more subdues but I am getting very comfortable with the orange.
I want to ride today as well but it is wet on the road, will see if it dries up.
Thanks for your feedback.
Joel
