Thanks for asking Matt - meant to mention that. In short, I love how it rides. I was wondering how a true racing thoroughbred with a 77 degree HA would handle. It's marvelous. The steep angles are to maintain weight balance when I'm riding way up there in the clouds. It's a fairly light bike - Nisi milled rims, w/25mm FMB tubulars make the most difference - just over 21 lbs before adding the tool roll w/spare tub, and a water bottle. Based on frame weight, and the 27.2 post, it's apparently an SL frame - a little surprising, as most would assume SP on a frame that big. Works great for me, as I don't put out huge watts anyway. Maybe it planes, too?!? It has a bit of toe overlap with the steep HTA and mild fork rake - but at least half of my bikes have that, and not a big deal to me. I am a little surprised how stable it is in a straight line, and how easy it is to ride no-hands. But man - when you want to change lines/lanes, it really responds! It's just a classic racing bike, and the great news is that I love riding it as much as I love looking at it. I'm very pleased.
