It would be interesting to see how she rides. Take the plunge Revtor. Tell us how it is.

Yeah, I'd be really interested in how it performs. Had my eye on it for a while.

I'm thinking about picking one up to build as a commuter/tourer. Ideal for MI winter with the aluminum frame... if I get it I will let y'all know how it is. Seems they thought of pretty much everything in the design though, except a spoke holder :D But I guess they have to cut SOME corners.

I was looking at it too. I decided to go with a steel-framed bike instead. This one looks really tempting at that price. I had good luck with the steel mountain bike frame they used to sell-built it up as my commuter.
