Just for the heck of it, would anyone else like to define what Grail is to them, while we wait, with bated breath, in rampant expectation of what iab's idea of a Grail bike is?

Sounds good, but beware! Once it arrives, the grail is no longer the Grail.
I know exactly what you mean. However, until it does arrive, you cannot determine it to be a Grail, can you? That comment assumes ride quality counts, when examining grail qualities?

So, if it is no longer a Grail, once it arrives (I do understand and agree 100%) and, if you cannot determine it to be a Grail, before it arrives, then, when exactly, is it a Grail?

And, by the way, here is my Grail and I did not know it until I actually had it under me...
