One of the biggest truths that is not stated enough. Tires, tires, tires is where it's at. Although this seems to be getting more attention with more and more talk of 25c-28c tires and brands like Compass.

since discovering Ti frames a number of years back, I really don't care to ride any other frame material. I'm tempted every once and awhile by carbon but Ti rides like no other - for me.

You strayed, now it's time to go back to your true love. She will forgive you.
