That's more like it. Since I got it as a frame/fork only and haven't yet built it up, I've yet to experience the ride - but I'm sure it's very nice, the price was right, and it'll build up out of 100% parts-box content. What's not to love?

Looks like about ~101-102cm axle-to-axle. 62cm ctc, 58.5 top tube, IIRC. I'm not too knowledgeable about the finer points of frame geometry, but it seems pretty tight. MUCH tighter than the hi-ten Apollo repaint that was my around-town for almost two years, and which I recently sold.
