Awesome ride! How do those Paul hubs compare to Phils?
Posted over 10 years ago
They're a bit lighter, but I don't notice a difference when I'm riding at all. Both are excellent choices.

how does thing ride with the aluminum fork?
Posted over 10 years ago
It rides pretty nicely. The ride isn't very stiff for an aluminum frame/fork, much less stiff than the Cannondales or Fuji Track Pro or the Tiemeyer.
