pardon my ignorance, but what is the purpose of the persuit geometery ie. front sloping top tube? is it to have a more "aero" riding position? if thats the main reason, then i would think persuit geometry wouldn't be the best choice for the type of riding you tend to do, ie. riding around on the street, commuting, primary mode of transportation....i will admit i have never riden a persuit frame, however it does look like it would not be suited whatsoever for rides longer than 5 miles, like it would really hurt your back. correct me if i am wrong but i was under the assumption persuit frames are made for going as fast as possible for a short period of time with less focus on riding comfort. i could be wrong tho...just speculating. they do look cool though lol
