How does it ride with that much weight on the back? I reckon it helps that you have your weight shifted towards the front with that long and low stem/bar setup. With swept bars it would probably be the ultimate wheelie machine.
The wall thickness of the laminate on the seatpost seems less than ideal, as luescher would say. Then again some ‘high end‘ carbon frames have similarly uneven wall thicknesses. I guess I‘m an RTM fanboy for a reason :)

Obviously it feels like it's loaded, but it's fine as it's just forward of the back wheel so it doesn't try to tip up by itself. It was a handful like that on the GT - with its shorter stays the weight was well behind the back wheel.
