(Tektro) cantilevers also seem a bit weak, but then again I'm used to discs or dual-pivots.
Other than that, it rides great. I love the slack head and seat tube angles. Be sure to check the sizing chart before ordering. I bought a 52, and I normally ride a 54/55.
Congrats! Post pics when you can. Enjoy the new bike.
