Hi Nick,
It’s been a couple of months since the new 4XL Clydesdale Draft arrived. It’s been absolutely great! I’m enjoying the longer cranks. I was a little concerned about knee pain, but the opposite has been true. Everything from clipping in to riding hills has felt more natural and more comfortable. I can really feel bigger muscles working in a new way.
It’s a nice feeling when, for the first time, I’m not at or over the weight rating. The bike feels very stable and solid. The brakes, too, give me a whole new feeling of confidence when descending.
I loved my old custom frame, because it was built to fit me, but I feel my new one fits even better.
Thanks very much,
Evan
