Was out on a ride and was passed by a rider on a modern aluminium jobbie at a pace. Lesley and Sue who were with us said go on catch him. Like a fool i went for it.
To my utter amazement I caught him up easily. He kept looking back as he could hear my stem creaking on the Pro . I was not even on the big cog. It was very scary as there was a lot of down hills.
You just cannot explain how fast these bikes are in sprint trim. The modern bike is easier to ride but as for speed not much has moved forward.
It scares me to push it harder but im sure a good rider would make it go even faster.
Get one.
