Really happy with my decision on this Ultimate. I was between ultimate and endurace and chose the ultimate because it “looked cooler”. Had a flat and got stranded first ride(didn’t bring extra tubes). I switched to tubeless next day and haven’t had problems since. I’m a bigger rider(6ft, 220lbs) but pretty flexible so the aggressive geometry isn’t a big deal. I’ve had several 60+mile rides and have some 80+ milers planned when mornings get warmer. Getting in the drops isn’t as comfortable but is getting better as I stretch more and shed some weight. In my opinion, if you’re in between 2 bikes, the biggest factor is the coolness factor. Whatever bike looks the coolest will be the bike you want to ride the most and will get you out on the road the most.
