  • I'm not really sure where to put this, so I'm putting it here.

    Intitialy the bike seems fine. But then you read the fucking blurb. It's the blurb and the whole package that makes it anti for me. Basically no different to a fluro Puma in a Carnaby St window.

    Prime example:

    The frame design is "expanded," which is not at all like "compact." The top tube slopes up 6 degrees, and so the head tube grows in height to intercept it. As a result, it is easy, really easy, to get your handlebar high up where it's comfortable.

    Really? It sounds like a a compact frame (or at least semi-compact) to me. And the only reason not to call it compact is to distance the product from more comercial factory tawanise road bikes, and ensure that it falls into that uncommercial niche that is so hot right now.

    The whole faux friendly, small-time, humble bike maker shit makes me want to puke.
