I loved the ride quality of the Casseroll. If a cheap Craigslist Cross Check frame and hand-me down parts hadn't fallen in my lap i would have probably gone with the Salsa.

I have 105 w/ RSX shifters and a Sugino compact double. Even with these "road" parts, fenders and rack etc mine still weighs close to 28 lbs and makes me wish i had a triple.
