    that is a great suggestion. you may be onto something there. i did not check what psi the tires were so that may be what is making it a bit sluggish.

    seat post stops after a couple inches?...need confirmation before the hacksaw comes out

    my LBS has informed me that when installing the seat post into the bike it stops after about 2 inches in. anyone else confirm if this is the norm? he was wondering if the post needed to be cut to length. can anyone confirm that the seat post can go further down into the frame? thanks

    just got home and no bike. no package at door or at neighbor's. walked around the area and don't see a thing. called ups customer service and started an investigation. :( would be a good thing if Radrover people required UPS to have a signature before dropping off the package.

    Great to hear from the RR team on the 4th of July! They could have waited a day and no one would have pointed a finger. Thanks Mark! I'm feeling confident our bikes are going to be the bees knees.
