Ross Gardner Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 Looks awesome, but I find it is THE most uncomfortable frame to ride. Feel really hunched over, and my back is always under strain and tensed. Guess it's just me though. Lets ride this weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
