As far as negative reviews, I have seen some negative reviews in magazines and online of some bikes. Like I said, Isaac doesn't advertise like the bigger companies and the article I referred to was a long term update and not some intial impression of the frame. Bottom line is whether I like it. I hated my Litespeed Vortex in 2002 which was supposed to be one of the "best" at the time.
I will be honest about the Isaac once I get it on the rode but it is a nice looking frame.
Oh course there are negative reviews in magazines and online. Just never seen one in "Bicycling" magazine.
