yeah, that geo and the threadless option just make it a better platform for a dedicated road bike - which isn't to say, as Jim notes, an AHH couldn't be essentially the same bike if it used a light build kit. but using an AHH as a dedicated road bike, however, doesn't make much sense. that bike is destined to do more. Jim also makes an important point regarding a preference for heavier parts - building up a 25lb Roadeo might not yield what was supposed a zippier bike than the other 25lb bike in one's stable. choice of components needs to be considered along with the frame. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
