Expirience with the Simplon CIREX, XTR-12

Ludwig Döhl The Cirex is a classic race fully which has been trimmed for propulsion. The moderate 68 degree head tube angle ensures a balanced handling. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. On the way to the summit, the Simplon Fully lets it rip. With its 510 bandwidth on the gears and the overall athletic alignment, the on long tours competitors got some catching up to do. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
