Shit guys thanks for all the posts! I'm so glad that people are responding and being so helpful..
defs gonna continue with questions n the such courtside.. nothing like bike-chat at throw-ins, I'll bring some beers to encourage conversation, should help :)
I'd agree that the investment of time, effort and money builds an emotional bond with a bike; I recently built my mountain bike (and drained my bank account), and now sleep with it in the room, say goodnight to it and all (I kid not)..
I think the note about the length of time polo technology has had to develop is a very important factor - if you look at suspension designs in the 80's + 90's, they're pretty interesting.. Obviously its still at an experimental stage, which makes it all the more interesting..
Also Joni you have had a pretty rad bike-history, your current ride is drool-worthy.
Once again cheers guys, great help!
