Vik, that's an incredible loop. Well done. And that cotic looks 👌. I'll be interested to hear your ride impression.
Gdharries, I tried a rootdown once before I bought this one. According to Sean at chromag, the tubeset is slightly thinner on the primer. I feel like I can feel it, but I probably can't. It could be the build but I kind of doubt it as they were pretty similar. Its probably just the lighter tires I have on this one right now. The primer seems more lively and wants to flick around a bit more. I find myself riding it more playfully than the rootdown. Again, maybe just the tires?
I have only sold one hardtail frame ever, the rest I either still have or have broken. I figure the Canadian one will probably last longer and if I'm going to keep it till it brakes I might as well love it.
