Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Can you tell us why? I'm personally interested as I'm looking to buy another frame for 2006 and build it up and this, along with a Parlee Z3, Look 585, and a few others are on my list for consideration. I'm curious as to your observations.

BR,

I've seen some pretty simplified reviews before, but yours takes the cake.

Please go a little more in depth, as I have also considered one of these for a future bike, and would like to know how it compares to other alloy frames out there. I am not a big fan of aluminum, but the six-13 has nothing but alot of satisfied customers. I'd like to know exactly why. What's the hub-bub?

I'm with Patriot on this. You just don't hear of a 6-13 (or most other highr level C-dales) owner not liking the steed. It's kinda odd. It also just offends my sensibilities to no end that C-dale builds a Al/carbon mix that flat works.

I have one. In fact I am on my second one. Went to the new one with the rebuilt seat tube about four months ago.

It's neato....
