I have to admit, I agree. I nearly opted for the Jekyll, and it was the Lefty that almost swung it. Maybe the Jekyll is a good bike, but it seemed to lack something. Guys at the lbs were also a bit dubious about it, though they were more positive about the upper range models. I think the top end Jekylls have been surpassed by the Gemini. Perhaps they are bikes with different missions, but I think my Gemini is ounce-for-ounce, pound-for-pound a better deal. My $0.02 worth.
