Any heavier riders out there riding the Columbus Muscle Fork? I'm in the 180 lb range and am looking at one. Wondering how the flex, ride and deflection is. It' s in the same component weight range as other pretty solid contenders, like the ouzo pro and the alpha q. Just wondering how it stands up.

Thanks

I had a 1" Muscle on a steel bike, and found it to be very comfortable, but probably a little too flexy.
I put it on one of my stiff alu bikes which was a much better match.
