just curious how much experience you have that would back this up?
I have a fair amount of experience since I started riding a bike at about 5 years old. I rode DF bikes for 67 years. In 2005 I bought my first bent, was sold on the comfort immediately, and sold off both of my DF bikes. I can assure you I will never go back to a DF bike and their torture device!!!!!
