Handles great, I think. I've not ridden any other similar bikes so not sure what the benchmark is. Off-road, its better with wide flat bars, but I find them uncomfortable on longer flat road slogs. The drop bars are loads better in this respect and also nice to be able to hunch in for a headwind.
That all said, I'm surprised at how much I like riding offroad in the drops, still loads of control, feels secure and strangely racey.
All in, I'm pretty chuffed. Next thing is to put the big knobblies back on at some point and try some propper off road with the new cockpit.
