This American-made masterpiece evokes the handling and feel of an old-school steel racer in a carbon frame with the weight, stiffness, and performance of a fully modern machine. The ride is crisp and energetic, but without the sometimes raw feel of pure race bikes. It’s stiff and damped, with a connected-but-insulated ride character that evokes a fine grand-touring car. In fit, feel, and function, this Arkansas-born bike finds a near-perfect balance between race and endurance. - Joe Lindsey $7,920, (as tested); 14.9 lb. (54cm)
