Just came off a 50 mile tandem ride and saw this setup on a brand new BEYOND......it worked without a hitch.....rolling terrain, about 1500-1800 ft of climb and no issues.....we rode next to them on a triple and was jealous......

Would like to test that on climbs over 3,000 ft though with grades >10% - 12%
