Just a few questions on the bike; looking at picking one up locally. From the pics, the bike looks amazing. I am going to see it in a few days, and was wondering if there was anything specific I should look out for on this bike.

I know it has an all aluminum fork; is there any concern with this?

I am a def in the clyde realm; will this bike have any problems supporting me?

Thanks!

Probably the biggest issue is the shifters, make sure they work in all gears. It'll cost you $50 or so to have Jim McVey repair them, he did mine and they came back working fine.

AFA will it support you - I reckon the frame won't be the issue. The wheels, maybe; mine has 32 spoke wheels on Mavic rims (not SUP); that *could* be an issue. Keep the tires inflated!

As far as I know the shifters are RSX downtubes; do these suffer the same issue as you noted?

If your worried about the fork I don't thingk is should be an issue unless you are well over 300lbs.

I guess 16 Victor is talking about having someone fix his brakelever/shifter integrated system aka "Brifters"

Sweet; I am sure he is talking about the brifters.

I am sure the aluminum fork would be fine; I know some others have not had a very strong reputation!

gt eunuch, There's nothing to worry about. If it fits, it's good to go.
