Superfly, Super Fast

Well, it’s late, but I owe it to my trusty steed to at least say…damn, that Superfly is super fast!  It’s all I could think about as I hit the dirt tonight. I must admit, I was only so-so on the Superfly initially.  I was actually more impressed by the X0 components, which I still think is a whole new level of shifting precision. I also wasn’t sure about 29” wheels, since I enjoyed singletrack and didn’t want to lose agility.  And although this is a minor point, carbon is creaky and complains when you work it hard.

However, I’ve had a few more rides over the last month and last Friday I changed the tires to 1.75” XDX with tubeless setup, and I think this has made a world of difference.  Maybe it was the week of rest too.  Either way, the Superfly and I have bonded and am excited to put it to the test this season in WORS.  Thanks to my fellow teammate Brian, it already had a great debut at WEMS...as well as the debut of Team Scott :-)  Hopefully I can keep the party going come next weekend.
