Strengths:
Light, Light, Light, titanium tubing= size of steel tubing with less weight than aluminum. this bike was super smooth, probably the smoothest bike I've ever ridden, even tho it was ultra light. looks very cool, minimalistic, awesome geometry. The performance of this bike would be pretty hard to match, impossible to better.
Killer bike if you can afford it, and if you need something nobody, i mean nobody else is riding, If I had 6,000 to spend on a bike this would be it, no questions asked. 4 chilis on value cuz of price, and I dont own it so i cant speak for the reliability, but hey it's a SEVEN. Overall I would give this bike 10 flaming chilis in the overall if I could, this bike just plain rocks!
