It handles sweet, but you do have to get used to the longer wheel base on turns. Some have noted shimmy on downhills, but it's been rock steady for me, probably because I can stretch forward to the front of the bars and get more weight on the front tire. Climbing out of the saddle definitely feels 'funny' though and is gonna take some getting used to.
