Anyone have a Salsa Podio or Pistola?

[fourflys]

Looking to get any feedback on the Salsa Podio or Pistola if anyone has ridden either. I currently ride a Salsa Campeon, but wonder if the Podio rides any different due to the new/different seatstays... I also wonder how the Pistola rides...

Thanks,
Chris

dude, i've been trying to track down info on the pistola for a while now. local dealers have no stock to check out and the posted link seems to be the only real review i've found.

i'm kinda done with the whole internet only thing for bikes tho......

Huh Yeah pretty late to chime in!! But what the heck, maybe Fourflys is reconsidering one. In fact I had one for sale here a couple years ago and it pretty much as Salsa describes it. Quote

Crafted of custom-drawn scandium alloy tubing and paired with a full carbon Alpha Q GS10 fork, the frameset is all about going someplace fast without beating the tar out of your body.

Possibly of interest - there's a Pistola frame and fork up for auction on ebay right now. Size 53 (TT equivalent of 590)
