Some of the reasons in no particular order:
- Comfy cockpit – shorter top tube and less bar drop than my usual racers means less strain on my back.
- Multi purpose – fast on the road with a rack for commuting and knoblies to have fun on the single track on the way home.
- Fun – stiff frame and sharp steering make it fast, snappy and fun.
- FSA crankset – sexy and stiff. 46-36 is close ratio and usable in the real world.
- Belgian hardman chic – form follows function PRO.
