My girlfriend has now done several rides on her new Isen and is very much enjoying most aspects...
She is however getting excessive feedback from the front end and a really bumpy ride through the bars does anyone else find that on their Isens? She's currently running 28c 650b Gp5000s so overall diameter quite a bit smaller than a 700c set.
I can't figure out why the ride is so bumpy. She's just got alloy bars and stems so wonder if upgrading to carbon would make a difference? You can visibly see the bike bounce around though so not sure components will make much difference...
