Bicycle Magazine Discovers New Frame Technology - Steel
Although my subscription ended years ago they keep coming. The big lay-out this month was ...steel road bikes. The article features a story by the BM 'journalist' riding a Record Ace in the Sea Otter, and a review of half a dozen steel bikes. Some quote like 'gliding over the potholes unlike the chatter coming from carbon fiber bikes...' Gag... it comes off to me as an attempt to pander to steel frame riders who laugh at BMs attempt to sell anything new and expensive to its readership... I'm sure it was painful for the editors to allow phrases like 'Surly Pugsley' & "Soma Smoothie" to contaminate the pristine pages of this rag.
