I guess this is now considered "old school" and to some, quite odd. Hopefully to a few it is damn cool... as for myself I love this beast. I built it in 1995/96...almost 10 years ago? Whoa. Thats scary. It is sooooo light, rigid, responsive and strong and I hope it lasts a few more years. I suppose I could spend another 2 grand for a new bike but this one is just as good. Its amazing!
