Congratulations! I ride mine all over the place... road, trail, 1 miles or 40 miles, with all kinds of handlebars (da Vinci splitters are wonderful). I've done S24Os and S48Os hauling 50 pounds (when I weighed almost 300 pounds myself), I commute, I shop, I cruise along and just enjoy being out and about. It's really, really good for all of it. I've had one for 5 years (and two for 3 years) and still am not over how comfortable and pleasant ot ride the Hillborne is. It remains stunningly fun.
You should expect to enjoy it quite a bit for years. Yours, Thomas Lynn Skean On Monday, July 20, 2015 at 2:52:16 PM UTC-5, Alohashirt wrote: > Just got my new Sam Hillborne, and I am in awe!
