Initial impressions - stiff but lively, soaks up a lot of road buzz compared to my CAAD9 (obviously) and even my Streetfire. Frame is reasonably light and is powder coated rather than painted which I love. The fork is really heavy, I might end up replacing with a Edge 2.0 or EC90.
The main reason that I like this bike better than my previous bikes is the geometry. This is a size Large with a 57cm VTT and a 190mm HT. The upright position is great for long rides
Would I benefit more with the CAAD9 then as it has a much more aggressive geo, and my main purpose with this bike will be racing.
