Don't let being a "purist" stand in the way of logic and making a good decision. The continental will go 200+ with accessories and neither it or the Lycombing are suited for the KR1. I seem to recall Jab's had some early problems but if those have been resolved it seems you have the answer in your pocket. Larry Flesner
