I'm amazed at the feel of the bike. I've been riding a Specialized Roubaix (carbon frame). Although the San Marcos is several pounds heavier, on the road it feels lighter and much more agile than the carbon road bike. Dick told me I'd be amazed at the difference. He was not exaggerating. Sorry, I don't know how this bike compares to the Hunq.
