I met a gal at a charity ride last year in Mobile AL. She was on her
lovely new Nordavinden. I was on my Riv Road. We admired each others
bikes and swapped in the parking area just to see how each one felt. I
found the Rawlnad to be much stiffer and slower responding compared to
the Road and slightly more so than my Rambouilet or Saluki (Which pretty
much have the same tubing) . I much prefer my road. Vikki however,
thoroughly loves her bike, so obviously what one rider loves another
might not.

And I'm somewhat kidding. I'm not THAT heavy. I mostly like to poke some good-natured fun at the BQ
club, planing, etc. And also I like to pick apart the "oversize tubing" label that has
been applied to the tubing diameter that has become standard in recent decades. (If
"oversize" is the current standard, then the old standard could be regarded as undersize.
I'm not judging, I swear). Aside from all that, the Nordavinden seems like a great frame for the
right person, and it's attractive too.
