it actually, to me, rides way better than it looks. I have updated mine with Ultegra/Open Pros, B17, and upjutting Salsa SUL quill. Don't think I'm imagining the ride qualities. Even sold as a touring bike, it seems lighter duty than that to me, and the geometry rides like a faster bike than the typical long wheel based, heavy tubed, touring machine. Would love to hear from someone else who owns one to find out if I am imagining things or not.
