I reckon I could've made a TT bike work
Nice to have the drops for all that descending too, no? Would have been a bit miserable descending on a TT bike with thin brake levers and head way over the front hub, tempting disaster!

Nice, yes, but I've managed to ride the PX over everything so quite doable. The descents weren't as steep as a lot of British roads, though they were longer. Could pad out the brake levers a bit to help if it became an issue. Now I have the 4SD though I'll not bother trying to fire up a TT bike for it. It's cheaper too. Not sure how comfortable I'd be leaving the £££ Shiv outside shops :)

I reckon I could've made a TT bike work but I have to say I really liked my hydro disc brakes and the luggage capacity the bigger, more open frame gave me.
