Wow. Don't tell the myriad of aluminum riders that this happens--they're living in blissful ignorance... lol! Seriously, though--Aluminum frames have come a long, long way from the rigid race frames of yesteryear. My Klein "sounds" and feels a bit different than my carbon or ti framed bikes, but it doesn't ride any harsher--at least not that I could tell. YMMV.

Your bike is a fast, sleek, modern bike that will go as far as you want to go with it...
