Compared to a Bel Air?

Yes and i find it massively uncomfortable compared to my bel air which i like. Think it's a lot narrower which just doesn't suit my backside.

I went from a bel air to an aliso and much happier...broader flatter nose and bigger flatter area for my backside.

I had the lighter ti version...but had a bit of smallish crash and a rail bent.

Still have it if you want it to try and straighten the rail for test purposes (for postage obviously!).

Cheers

They're a wee bit flatter on top than a bel air, and also a wee bit chunkier. If you like the bel-air then you'll probably get on with it, I reckon.

I've seen quite a few shops which do an SDG demo thing though, where you can take one and try for a few days before you buy. Could be worth looking into!
I've always been a fan of the bel air, and recently tried a Falcon, which was really nice. It's like the bel-air in terms of the shape (slightly contoured top, with a bit of lift at the tail end) but much slimmer, and a bit better looking.

Cheers!

I love my Bel Air.
I HATE my Alisio.

what matther01 said, but mine has survived so far, would swap my other belair for one but have not found it in an i-beam.
