I am 165lbs, so close to you. If I were considering those two, I’d go Susie. I would appreciate the lighter tubing and a bit of flex when bouncing downhill. I’ve always appreciated the extra springiness of lighter steel tubes. Especially the fork.
Threaded, threadless. Despite the threaded weighing a bit more, as noted above, I’d venture to say Susie will feel more lively. The only negative would be the name itself. I don’t know if I can ride a bike with Susie Longbolt down the side. Plus, I love the name Gus Boots Wilsen. Wish Rivendell placed the stickers outside of the clear coat like Surly. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
