A complient bike with tyres at lower pressures has a lower rolling resistance. It will be faster over coarse chip road surfaces then a stiffer frame with over inflated tyres.ni78ck wrote:Not everyone wants to ride with 15psi less!

I was thinking similarly, especially observing the long stem and seat post setback.singlespeedscott wrote:Man that's a little bike. What size it? How tal are you and what's your saddle height?

That comes out at 4250km a year
I hope that you increase that once you drop 10k on a bike
