I had the very nice opportunity to ride with Chris Chance in Texas in
1984. He had a van with a bunch of bikes, and we did a bunch of riding. I
was astonished by how nimble his bikes were, how much they felt like fast
road bikes, in contrast to the very long and slack geometry of that
period. Rocketships.
Perhaps the transition pre-dates Grant's MB's.
