2010 review: excellent, comfy, great ride

2012 review: harsh,unforgiving, disappointment.

Have the frames changed AT ALL?

(sorry for the hijack)

2010 review: makes sense.

2012 review: describes a frame whose problems can't happen at the same time, like slating a car for being too small AND really difficult to fit into parking spaces. Embarrassingly idiotic and should be ignored.

The frame is still as good as it ever was, despite the slightly odd sizing (16" is v long but 18" and 20" are hardly any longer). (I don't own a Carbon 456 but I almost bought one a couple of years ago).

I loved my 2012 C456. I HIGHLY rate it too anyone tempted into it. Mine was super stiff but forgiving when it needed too be too. Rode amazingly well and is really overbuilt so you won't break it unless you wreck it.
