I remember seeing that blog post and that has really stuck out in my mind about Grant saying the Sam is meant to ride like the Homer and he can’t tell which bike he is on when riding. Has anyone else had that experience between the two? I had a Sam briefly and like the way it rode ok but I actually thought it was too similar to my Hunqapillar (when setup as a road bike with compass tires) so I sold it and just do two wheelsets on the Hunq.
