I just bought a new 54cm roadini this week, built it up with mostly leftover parts (as quick as possible without sleeping) and took it for a shake down ride in the hills yesterday evening. The ride climbs 1200 ft or so on not great roads and descends quickly on pretty sketchy road.
I ride this a couple time a week on my Atlantis or Sam. On the Roadini, I was in a bigger gear the whole time. I was suddenly passing several carbon bikes. The ride was twitchier than my other bikes but still very stable. Def a fast roadish bike even (maybe because of?) with 38mm Barlow pass el. The stack and reach on the roadini make it more suited for drops than any other riv without funny stems. If I had to have one bike and choose between a homer and a roadini, I’d take the homer for the utility, smoothness, and lugs. Roadini is a really good second or third bike.
