The Falcon would probably have been a wonderfully fitting and handling bike if I had known (thanks to Grant's intervention) how to set it up. The Calfees and Treks and RB1s have been praised for their handling and fit. > So please give details about why the Roadeo is the unquestioned reasonable choice. > I am not interested in fenders or tires larger than 28, nor am I interested (for the purposes of this discussion) in fineness of joinery or cosmetic details.
