Great looking frame, but you must shit yourself every time you see a pothole/draincover/curb?
Nah its not too bad at all, but potholes dont mix with it, and the disc is a lot tougher than it looks - no bunnyhoping though! . . now i am used to it, the ride is fine, and the steel has a lovely ride to it
TBH my old Lavoro with Deep V rear and Aerospoke front was far worse in the wind , haven't really noticed it yet on the Aende - not that i know anything about these things but i think the front Zipp makes a big differance to the airflow, and smooths things out quite a bit.
Think i am going to invest in a matching Zipp deep carbon rim for the rear though, and have since removed all the decals on the frame and wheel, as per Murtles recomendation (though i did catalog them for when i eventually have the cash to restore it), and got my trusty Time Atacs on it too.
