Cross post from Richmondtrials :
The build is finally finished! I was skeptical about switching from the Slate II to the Kortz, but afterall it rides like a dream. Thank you Kevin and www.wherestheseat.com .
15-hour review:
The frame is surprisingly stiff. With that, the +65 feels very stable and borders on being effortless on the rear. Also, last night I was tapping much better on the new fork and stem- as in actually tapping to rear instead of to wheels as per usual. I think the old Meta fork was too tall and had too much rake. Plus having a long steerer and fork made the front unresponsive and the rear was sluggish.
Now I can get a bit more lateral travel/tuck on my sidehops, which was the biggest problem with my "technique". It wheelswitches much differently. I need to travel more upward than forward. I have no doubt that over the next week or half dozen rides I will get used to it. Already gotten used to the different steering. Kinda got used to adjusting to this after trying so many bar/stem combinations.
I have not measured the geo, but I'm using an appropriate fork so it should be near whatever is listed.
Pics:
Sorry the pics are not good. It's winter and it rains every other day so no point scrubbing the bike for pictures. Nice to go from gold to something a little less flashy. The purple/pewter accents had to stay. Anyway I think it looks great.

這一篇是來自Richmond論壇裡一位車手分享他騎他新車的感受，裡面提到了車子所有的設定細節，以及騎起來的差異好壞比較。
如果說這篇沒有任何正面意義的話，那應該就是討厭的廣告文，但似乎不太像。
比起以下這些網址，這篇文章應該值得讓愛PO廣告的廠商學習。
