  • has anyone used the b15 swallow? i like the look of it a lot but i did read a blog post about someone who got one and it sagged down to the point of being unridable within a few months i think it was. probably just a defective one.

    I've had a B15 Swallow (Ti rails) for years. It's done plenty of long rides (200km to 1400km) even out in the rain, not a problem.

    Production problems aside, over zealous tightening and over zealous application of proofide are the usual causes of sag and stretch.

    If anything did happen to it I'd probably replace it with a C15 (despite the C15 being 35g heavier than the B15Ti). A C15 with Ti rails would be absolutely ideal.
