Very lightweight, very responsive handling,great riding bike.
For such an inexpensive frame, the welds look better than a custom bike I had made. This bike rides and feels leagues above it’s price point. get one yesterday.

Moments before my first ride aboard my Paraon at the 12 hours of Temecula

unleash the demons

This is my 1×7 XXIX in commuter mode- 11-30 cassette, sitting on 700×38 Specialized Nimbus tires. I commute 17 miles a day in the Sierra foothills and have No problems.
In Mountain mode I use a 13-34 cassette and IRD Fire XC Pro tires.
