I had in my post preemptively agreed that carbon was surely appropriate, that Koga and the rider knew what they were doing... Definitely not arguing that, you guys are correct.
Only pointing out a little sadness... The bikes I love on this very thread, the ones most frequently posted, the ones people who come read this very thread seem to prefer, are very different to that Koga... Like if it's only about the aesthetic of functional, but not the reality of it... I realise how naive of me this is. Not naive actually, maybe just playing along with it...
