From my brief research, the strength to weight appears to be a key part. A lot of other frames I checked out have similar properties, but 500ish grammes more frame to boot. All that magical 853 tubing, mmmmm.
Anyone out there who’s ridden a few different LTHTs?
I’m a little envious of the black frames, mine’s orange (bargainous 2nd hand purchase), maybe I’ll refer to it as “flame”.
Vortex, you’re right. It’s encouraging to hear other riders with a similar setup. Shame there isn’t an I-beam GD post!
I’ve got a 70mm stem which I plan to use with it, are people using shorter with theirs or about the same?
