I have one and it is an awesome bike in every way. Geometry is dead on, welds are superb and an added bonus is a fantastic custom paint job. It is also comforting to know that he made the bike Andy Hampston won the Giro Italia on!

I know the paintjob is fantastic, that appears to be the major emphasis of the website. What I need to know is how does the bike ride. Is it stiif in the bottom backet? will it climb like a goat and descend like ferrari? I'm an Older recreational rider that likes to stay with the pack on spirited group rides. I think there is great benefit to a custom ride. I'm just a little leery about buying a bike from an "artist" turned frame builder. Do you Know if john slawta has an biking/racing background? any info. or advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanx
