whoa whoa whoa. back up just a bit *beep* *beep* *beep*

who isn't recommending the IRO? I have personally recommended the Angus and Mark V (same geo) to many different people, both new and old. It's a great bike for a beginner and I am pretty sure I have seen it recommended many different times. Even if it wasn't recommended, it certainnly wouldn't be for "slack" geo. Someone post evidence if i'm wrong. Dolan is a good bike. Probikekit.com sells them cheap. Go for it.
