NBD again! And so soon after last one..

Some thoughts after few weeks.. Haven't had too much time to ride but after a few rides I can say that I like the bike. The handling is just right, I think a bit nimbler than my previous track bikes on road which is nice as (a strong)maybe intend to use is for cyclocross also at some point. The previous bike I used felt a bit lazy(steamroller) but this doesn't. It's also easy to ride without hands, maybe will try a inline post at some point if I add bags into the mix to move the weight a bit to the front. 

The winter is still very much present around Helsinki. Have used it with 35 knobbies and also with 32mm slicks and I think it rides well with both. I feel that the pedaling is effective and on flat surfaces the ride feels smooth even though the road has some debris and unevenness to it. Obviously it's not a mountain bike and the occasional uneven frozen paths in the forest feel terrible on 35mm tyres with speed and relatively high pressure but of course that is the case with the setup. 

The finished welds look great and smooth to me and the bike has had an overwhelmingly positive and praising reception with a hint of jealousy of course.. as it should hehe. :) Was positively surprise that the holes for the rear rack were above the brake saddle(as ordered but forgot about this) so can actually choose any rack I wish opposed to disc specific racks like tubus disco. 

I have to say that I feel really good from ordering this frame from Orłowski. Right from the initial touch & talk to the finished product. 

More to come..
