Thanks for showing your Techniums, guys. I've been riding mine since I bought it in 1990
as a leftover. This bike has been just pure awesome, especially after I put the aluminum
fork on and dropped a couple pounds. It now weighs 20 lbs. I can't say enough about the
Technium. It is just flexible enough to be comfortable on long rides, but when I want some
speed, I just reach into the drops and pull it out. I am not what I would call a strong rider,
so I have not reached the limit of what this bike can do.
I usually take it out for 60-milers in the summer and my pace is about 16. I have to admit
that one reason I ride the Technium is because it is U.S. I am proud to do-so.
