The big tires, inflated to only 40psi, soak up the bumps well enough to prevent the dreaded spray when you pop the top. It's nice to be able to put this noble French steed to work. .
That's a good looking bike. Question for those of you with front racks. Does it affect your steering much when loaded, or is it not noticeable? Reason I ask, is I've considered getting one for my Diamond Back. I have a rear rack with bag, but haven't committed to a front rack yet.
