Just curious why you ditched the Dawes. I've heard nothing but good about them.

The geometry on the dawes felt weird to me. it didn't have a steep seat tube angle and the low head tube angle made the stearing dull. in was made for city commuting and i wanted something with a more racy feel. It was light and stiff, but i like this frame a lot more.
