The derailleur is really strong. I once broke my SRAM Rival Derailleur once right by the bolt (I was in a really low gear going up a hill and a large but short stick got lodged in my derailleur) and the derailleur only slightly got bent. It was only a 5 min fix with a deraileur hanger alignment tool. Only think I didnt like was that the seat post binder is integrated with the frame and not separate.
Mine is a 54cm. I'm about 5'9" with 30-31" inseam.
Nice ride! I just ordered a 50 cm which now has me worried, because I'm about the same size as you. I made my decision based off of the effective toptube length. How do you like the fit of yours? What rims did you use?
Thanks
