My previous ride was a chrome alloy TCR 2 - getting on the new one is like somone removed 20lbs of lead wieghts - and it's stiff as - I;'m a biggish bloke and I use to stress the frame of my old beast - with this one my biggest problem is getting the power to the ground.

Good to see another lunatic getting out there amongst the traffic. Riding around Sydney is "entertaining" to say the least, but excellent fun.

I've not done any Crit's, but a Canadian mate of mine (sometimes rides in Brisbane with a morning) gorup, has been trying to talk me into it.

Bring on the Tour ! At last something to watch other than "netball with no arms".

cheers

I was very intrigued by the strike. A friend has one & likes it. The one i wanted was a bit rich for my taste & the toupe is working out well. But as the salesman said...He doesn't recomend saddles because everyone's anatomy is different.
