Roberta, yes the "She-Devil" (in matte anthracite it looks more like a "He-Devil" to me) really does seem like a fine bike for the cost, plus it was in stock !!! and I wanted to try this style of frame for my 70 yr old body. I'm going to put Tosco bars on it to get a little more up and back, but otherwise I think I am fine with it "off the rack." Easy folks to deal with, too, at Handsome Cycles. I read in an interview that their geometries were inspired by Grant's designs at Bridgestone and Riv.
