Wow. That Manitou is sexy, too sexy. Its also aluminum, but damn, its like knocking one out on a 10 with a cold sore. Klein owns my aluminum heart, I almost broke. another alloy goddess, That Rocky Mountain Vortex! (Ultimate was FS?) If I had to pick one bike, it's the Passoni. It was born boy, but is now a man! (Nothing wrong with road bikes) I still like it. kudos.
