 Quest is great

-fine tuning the Quest; climbed Pinehill Road with the least effort of climb for any bike I've ridden -perhaps bike weight and the eccentric crank are the major reasons.

11.01.11 addendum:
The Quest weighs 32 pounds, the same weight as the Bianchi. Yet the Quest is fast and it climbs easier than any of my other bikes including the Bianchi. I'm thinking the eccentric crank is the major factor enhancing climbing ability.
