Yeah, the suntour bits and Brooks Pro put a smile on my face. So far, in my limited time on the bike it feels like it flexes more than my Raleigh Pro. When I really cranked on it I could get the chain to rub the FD I assume from the frame flexing.

I expected it to feel sluggish, especially with the knobby Kenda tires but I was pleasantly surprised. It seems to be much livelier than the quad butted Fuji Club. Again, that is only a first impression of both bikes. The Fuji had some 20mm tires mounted too.
