I'm brand new to SS- in fact, I'm still shopping. I have my eye on a 2005 Bianchi SASS and I love the look and definitely want to be in a steel frame. The bike has been outfitted with a Fox 80mm front fork (which I've read is the right correction for that frame). I have been looking around for more feedback/ beta on this bike, but I'm not finding much. I know the Bianchi's run a little long, and a little tall for the frame size, but I think it's the right size from talking to the current owner.
Anyone out there riding a SASS or one of its many cousins? Anything you like/ dislike? Any issues I should know about?
This is my first SS, so I wanted to keep it cheap and keep it simple, but not so simple that I wouldn't want the front suspension . I know I'll not love the grind the first ride or so, but I'm psyched about the simplicity after being on a Full Susp for the last couple of years.
