Black Cat
Hands down, the most important trait of a bicycle. If the bike doesn’t fit correctly, it will affect the rider’s ability to ride the bike fluidly, free from thought. Your bike should corner easily, descend confidently, and climb symbiotically with you. A proper fitting bicycle affords these characteristics by putting your weight where it needs to be; you are balanced and ready to act and react with no hesitation. Without the fit, the rest doesn’t matter.
