I FLY Posted July 24, 2012 Share Soooo ... anybody have further experience on this frame please? ST handling, etc? I have ridden mine (in SS setup) three times - 65km rolling gravel roads ( with 6km 5% climb), 32 km twisty single track with some steep, loose surface climbs and 70kms at Cullinan race. I have no criticisms of the ride or the handling. Although the true test of handling will come on Saturday after a few of Wendall's beer shortcuts Good value for money package.

RockCoach Posted July 24, 2012 Share I quite liked the ride on a Vida 1 even though the bike was a size too small and it was only on the road. It was quite slow though. I was battling to keep up with runners. Okay, i have to admit that they were the top runners in Gauteng, but anyway... Ja, the Vida is a good ride.
