Its rare that I like an aluminium bike, but this is nice and understated, thumbs up! I had a similar experience riding SPDs fixed, Keo ever since:)

Kennt man sich?

unfall - bei 40 km/h + x aus den clickpedalen gezogen - nie wieder shimano spd...

broke the fork by unclipping (and crashing) from my shimano spd pedals while accelerating...

how would you compare this to the precursa? in the market for a new frame and was looking at either of these two.

Hey

the pre cursa is stiffer and slightly heavier. the moda has a higher bb (30cm). I feel more comfortable on the moda. Both bikes are really nice for the money. Paint chips off all the time on the dolan. Check these frames out. Similar to the dolan but smooth welds & no sloping: http://www.goldsprint.de/index.php/2012...

okay thanks. you're helping a lot in making this decision. is the moda fork drilled for a front brake? also how tall are you?

_nico says:

the moda isn't drilled for brakes. like the dolan i had garry @ keirin drill it for me. was way easier than the dolan. and i'm 1,83 -> 6'0 and it's a good fit!
