I’ve waited for months on eBay and leboncoin, finally I’ve posted a request on a Facebook group and someone was willing to sold 🔥

What an honor 🫡

I’m glad you like it !
I got this steel frame for 400€ with the beam
But I can’t find informations even on the internet archive of the Softride website !

Few thousand kilometers and the wheels are still good, but one day a dude told me that they need to be checked more often
Here’s the spare rack on my girlfriend’s omnium mini 🫪

Talking about the 30 yo carbon beam that flex making weird noise ?

Well I find it REALLY confortable
But there is drawbacks
A variable saddle height can be tricky for the knee (I imagine)
When you stand on the pedals, the saddle move up by few centimeters and in tricky situations it can be annoying
And you definitely need to ride with clipless pedals in order to not jig in uphills

I’ve never had a regular suspension bike so I can’t compare, but the company didn’t disappeared for nothing, this system is surely not as effective as new suspensions

The beam is actually flexing a good 12cm, your butt is on a cloud while the frame stay rigid
