  • Man that R&M design detail makes Bullitt feel a bit home made. I think I should have got R&M to begin with, bullitt has minor inconveniences which will make me snap one day and fire the money gun.

    Too much plastic and gimmick for me. I throw firewood, bricks, lawns tools, cement in my bullitt, then hose it down and toss kiddos in it. I wouldn't do that with an R&M. Too much plastic and expensive proprietary stuff

    I do not understand the suspension fork given it needs to contend with such a wide range of loads. There's no way it can be comfortable for 75 lbs of children and then also support 250 lbs of cargo the next day. It's also one more thing to service or break.

    I do like the cable steering though, but not for the center or gravity mystery.

  • I don't think I've ever felt like I'd lose control of mine, but there are some vicious lumps and bumps on the road to the tip. I could see how a well sprung front end might take a bit of the punishment away from the front end of the frame. But you're right, not sure how it would act in practice, given the very wide range of load weights it carries.
