i'm very comfortable opining. i can stand behind the reasoning
quite well. and i have never met a rider (at the top, at least)
nor anyone in the industry, who put any value in the term "crit
geometry". as i suggest (i believe some others here have as well)
it's a smoke and mirrors term atmo.
Again, in this case it doesn't reallhy matter what the pros and experts think, ultimately this gent wants a frame and needs help to articulate what it is. So what if his reference to crit racing is wrong for today? Is there any validity to what he wants today?
By the way, how would a 1980 Woodrup Giro be for crit racing? 103 cm wheelbase, flexy as hell, high BB, not much trail, needs a lot of bar force to flip into a turn but it stays on a line?
