It's the hub weight comments that are swinging it for me. I know IGH's are heavy and it will result in the rear of the bike being heavy - I guess I should have asked: is it more noticeable than a 3 speed hub on the Brompton? That's the only comparable I have.
Weight aside, I'd expect that bike to plow through potholes!
Interesting to read, think I'll give it a miss.
Last road bike I had was a Salsa Vaya which my brother has borrowed long term as I mainly use the mountain bike.
With the continuing travel restrictions I've only been using the Brompton in the city but Edinburgh roads are shit - want another big tyred bile that doesn't care about potholes!
