I purchased my Gunnar frame new in December 2011 and built it up mostly using parts on my old Fuji ValLite Club which I had upgraded and modernized. The Roadie is a much more aggressive and nimble bicycle than the Fuji.
This is a very quick and super fun bike to ride in the hills of the Santa Cruz mountains where I used to live. Here is the bike as originally built up.
Since the original build, the bike has been progressively upgraded, tweaked and tuned.
