I guess I should chime in here as a fellow "B-Stick" rider. I have a Corsa. Love the bike. My arthritis prevents me from enjoying a century (or too many of theme anyway...) on my regular road bikes. Although I did do the Six Gap on my CX bike this year for a change.

I will post some photos later of my bike. It's the bike I did my fastest speed record on a downhill on. 62.7 mph on the Burnt Mtn Century a couple of years ago. We staged the run and had some guys sweep the road for debris and such. All I wanted to do was to hit 60. But I managed to go a bit over. I had a 55t big ring to help me get the speed...

Needless to say, I called it quits on trying to go any faster unless I get out to Colorado and can hit new record on some of the giant hills they have out there.
