Am still making some adjustments so can't comment on the ride, but I did notice something curious. The rear end, where the carbon meets, seems to have some "ribs" in the design (presumably for stiffness, etc.) I also have a "Nightstorm" frame/fork (unbuilt) which may be "newer" as the back end does not feature the same ribs; overall its just more plain and rounded. So... my long winded question is: which is an evolution of which (did my "team" frameset in poinsettia red with ribbed back end precede the non-team "nightstorm" rounded back end.) (Such a simple question and I couldn't ask it right!)

Nightstorm has been an option on any frame for several years now. So unless you think the nightstorm is a year 2004 model I'd guess the evolution goes from ribbed to non-ribbed. -------------------- Check out my bike blog! http://diabloscott.blogspot.com Post Extras: rossRED new member Reged: 01/11/04 Posts: 10 Loc: Leeds, England Re: Q Pro Carbon rear end shapes [Re: DiabloScott] #1428 - 02/22/04 02:50 AM (62.252.224.8) Edit Reply Quote i also have the ribbed rear!
