Bobzilla's bike is now in my garage and it was an interesting deal especially when the bank teller changed his first name to Michael (I should have asked for "Bobzilla" I am sure they know him in town).
I am quite intimidated by the thing right now. I tried it on my dirt road and it pulls nicely, not an arm ripper like some of the bikes I tested in Moab (they will recognize themselves).
One of the good point is that the former rider and I have pretty much the same weight (scary thought when you think about it) so no major suspension work needed for the moment until I start pinning it or venture on the more technical trails.
The starting sequence is still something that bothers me a bit. Huh... I am not left-footed... yet?
