Love it! Perfect for my Needs
Former roadie turned foldie turned flatbar rider. Converted back to drop bars and paved and gravel paths. This bike is ergonomically correct for me and such a joy to ride. Great on accents, descents and flats. Occasionally I do get a bit numb below the wrists which I presu6is due to the width of the handlebars, but I can adjust as needed. REI custom ordered the 2x and I couldn't be happier.
