Changes made to 2013 Kagero?

As have mentioned in the other posts of mine, I'm looking to build up a new bike (between Kagero and Mash). I probably think about things too much so I've been reading all sorts of reviews before I decide. One thing I keep seeing mentioned is that the 2013 Kagero had some changes to geometry "for the better" over the previous year but no one ever seems to mention what the changes were. So, were there really changes? If so, what are they?

Instead of asking here, why not contact Patrick directly. He'll tell you.

They changed the colors. But don't take my word for it, I'm colorblind.

I did think of that first. He has yet to respond to my message in several days. Figure he's a busy guy and that I'd go to another information resource, this forum, where there may be handfuls who know the answer rather than one.

That's not fair. Who the hell would have thought to google it?

Har har har. My variations of search terms did not yield the bombhill's link. Now let's get back to the important information: what we just bought for our bikes and what we're currently listening to.

3T Ergonova Bars, a couple strips of Fizik faux suede tape, and some hipster-ass lame post-rock **** to fall asleep to.

And I just smashed a baconator and baked potatoXcheeseXbacon via Wendy's, because **** cooking right now.

I always feel like a huge piece of **** when I eat a bunch of fast food right before I go to sleep, but I'm swimming in a sea of saturated fat-induced bliss at the moment.

Yes. Even though I usually rock full-finger gloves, I love the feel when I don't.

I also really like thin tape and how grippy this stuff is.

Hm. I didn't like the texture to much, and it was super hard to reuse because it ripped so easily. Maybe I was just doing something wrong.
