Rides beautifully :), I came from a 25lb aluminum bike so its a whole new world. Rolls over bumps painlessly yet stiff when the hammer needs dropping.

Who said snow was a problem?

Sweet bike. Now sell it and get a couch from this millennium.

This post gets five stars.

Yeah it's a pretty sweet ride. I wish I could my bike down below 20. I think it's closer to 22, despite having a 2012 10-sp 105 group set and CF fork and seat post. Of course that's also with some old@$$ SPD pedals, bag, lights, and computer all installed on it.

Don't worry, it will get pushed to the side of the room and i will move my weight set and put some new rollers in it's place when i can afford them :)

Thanks for the reply's guys, I'm glad that I am not the only one who likes it
