I've always been a fan of polished metal for the frame. While different, those GT frames with that funny rear triangle with the stays and seat tube are a PITA if you try to put them on any car rack.

Those edge Aeros are excellent frames. They were pretty cool. The company lived and then died by the triple triangle frames. That was their calling card. They were a little heavier than the competition but they were fairly stiff..good for heavier riders.

You want stiff? Get a GT Vengeance. It will just about knock your fillings out but it's very fast.

That bike looks amazing, I love the GT triple Triangle design. I have a 93 GT Outpost trail and its a great little bike....been though a lot of hard rides in its lifetime. I need to find myself a GT roadbike this summer.
