Well i had a really nice long post about it, and then the forum ate my post. greeeeaaaat....
Anyway here are the cliffs notes.
I LOVE THE TRAN SEND!!!!
It ride fabulously well. Geared nice and high on the high end, very low on the low end, with plenty in the middle.
I bought it earlier in the week and have been riding it. It's a whole lot of bike for the price.
Brakes stop it on a dime. I plan to change the tires out because they are the weak link in the chain, but even they do their job admirably.
The grips are VERY comfortable. Road feel because of the solid frame is really good. I can really haul @$$ on this thing when I have to, but it's also very stable feeling even at low speed.
By the way, I always thoght bike bells were kinda fruity. Turns out it's actually incredibly useful. Much of my commute is along the MUP and when I passed people I used to have to call out the warning ("Bike passing on the left!"- or something to that effect). Now, I just ding my cmpass/bike bell at them and they get out of the way right quickly. I love it.
And now for your viewing pleasure, I present the bike porn.
Edit: ok my pics weren't working. But go here:
LINKARONI!!!
