Ahh, the bike. For some reason I had an itch for something a bit different than my Parlees and Eriksen. I read all the reviews (all were glowing) and seeing that this was a closeout, I splurged.

It rides well, carves twisty turns with ease. The Isospeed rear suspension works as advertised absorbed some bad road patches well (set in the middle setting). I usually don't go for disc brakes on a road bike but it allowed me to have wider tires than the rim brake version.

The aero shape enables you to hold speed well - this bike feels like its begging you to ride in the drops and just hit the gas. A really fun bike.

With all the cables internal, it helps if you buy from a local shop or do it yourself so you can provide the measurements to the mechanic and they can cut the cables with precision.

I rode my Gunnar Grand Tour, and also used it to model this Arkel bar bag...for an Instagram post. Bikes.

Excited

Lowest elevation mtb trails dry enough to ride today. I’m going to get my pivot out for the first time this year.
