I have a double TT 56 Hillborne. Was a fan of the 2xTT when I bought it, but wouldn't want another bike with a double top tube now. This is because mine fractured from the head tube whilst riding up an embankment. (downtube fractured too) I have no scientific basis to believe the fracture has anything to do with the double top tube, but it doesn't stop me from believing it does!
