Has anyone had any experience riding a bike made from Columbus Genius? I've read stories of it being very prone to dents/dings and wondered if anyone who owns one feels this is true?
I understand that Genius is formed by only butting portions of the tube that are under the greatest stress, therefore meaning the certain areas of the tubing is rather thin, so wondered would this cause issues with light crashed or stones flicking up, or is the stuff I've read just speculation as people assume, thin walls, easily dented.
Any info is appreciated! I ride 59cm and am about 70/75kg
Cheers!
