Is it just me? When I vote on your posts, unless it’s something egregious, I vote in eye candy appeal. The bike that I’d rather show up on at the club ride with the semi-pros wins. I look at that Stevens and something is hinky about that front end. The steerer tube is too long so the front end sits way too high or something. It makes the bike look slow. Make sense?
Anyway, I voted for the Fezzari for that reason. Now, we have to talk then into painting their bikes bright red with a yellow framed head badge with a horse on it. 😉
Completely makes sense. My particular beef are mamils – lots where I live – with the disposable income for a Spesh Venge but set up with a stack of spacers to make it more comfortable, when a Roubaix or a Trek Domane might have been better choices for the old back. 🙂
I’m lucky that way… The lower I ride, the better my back feels. I’m sure there’s a limit though – I’m no spring chicken anymore. Say no to squishy! LOL.

Ah, the squishy bikes!
