I love this thing! The seat, bars, and frame angle makes it feel fast. All perfect. The bottom end could float over megan trainor in a bouncy ball pit. <<<
I really like the way that guy mod'ed it. The obvious drop bars and then he went with mostly silver components to give it a retro vibe. Very cool. It's got me thinking of another yet build, but taking that theme a bit further.

I've found the rotating mass, weight and q-factor (the wide spacing of the pedals) are most noticeable on pavement and gravel roads. It's brutal when you're used to an ultralight road bike. But on singletrack MTB trails, all those negatives seem to magically disappear! It's a blast. You can easily get air and throw it around. Sort of like driving an all-wheel drive car on gravel where your line is not super important - you just kind of stick it wherever and mash the pedal down hard
