Meh. My modern steel HT is ace and probably the best HT I've ever had. Having ridden the early 90's and still having a 1992 Clockwork, which I love, I don't find the modern one any less lively. It's probably down to suss and big tyres replacing frame compliance but my new one is a comfy bike.

Best thing the industry ever did was stop being so obsessed with low weight.

My Sanderson was teh brilliant bike!

Long, lowish and not slack. Comfy and spiongy. A really great bike.

It was pre all the new standards mind....and is 2010 'Modern'?
