Sometimes, the guys joke about my Litespeed being a noodle etc etc

Carbon snobs can be that way, plus, it's over 2 or 3 years old, so therefore slow, not aero and completely useless to them :-)

There have been some new studies done lately which perhaps prove that stiffness is not the be all and end all of frames - and that in fact, a frame that has built in flex which works in sympathety with the riders strengths can perform a lot better than a stiffer bike.

i.e. what we all know deep down - specs are crap.
How it feels when you actually ride it is what counts.
