I didn't know LeMond's were made like that. How does the combination of materials ride like?
Several years ago I ended up buying an all Ti bike. I test rode the combination of Ti and CF on bothe Seven's and Merlin and thought they felt too "soft" and flexible with Seven and Merlin and went with straight Ti.
