It’s easy to put miles on this bike, even with the wet weather that we’ve had. I’ve heard a lot about how comfortable titanium bikes are — and that’s certainly true — but what’s really impressive is just how planted the bike feels. Even on wet pavement or in windy conditions the bike still feels glued to the road, which inspires a lot of confidence on descents and whenever the going gets fast. It’s like have all the speed from a carbon race bike, but none of the twitchiness. As a result, I ride a lot faster this year and am enjoying my time on the road a whole lot more.
It’s also pretty cool that any time I run into anyone who knows about welding, as happened this past weekend, they immediately start drooling over the impeccably clean welds.
