Ride another TF54 or 57. Curious how you feel about new shape and builds from the newer factories since you're on a Year One. The 57 was a tiny bit small for me but you're like 20 lbs lighter than I am, so might hit your sweet spot.SprockingCrail wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 2:32 pm I’m hitting the Korua demo at Sugar Bowl Wed.

Ok great advice, I will def jump on a TF 57 then, I had so much fun on my 54 yesterday I'm really curious to try a new one. I think I'll ride an Otto 61 for sure also, and a Pencil will be option3 if I have time before I jam to work.kimchi wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2024 4:38 pmRide another TF54 or 57.

Two other options I'd grab would be the Otto and the Pencil, personally. @pow_hnd has been trying to convert me on the Otto-train for over a year now haha.
Pencil shape always looked cool to me but relatively less effective edge has always scared me off. If I was out there this Wednesday I'd definitely go for a lap.
I wasn't super stoked on the Cafe Racer 164 I owned, but it was an older one from the early years and it was also wide as shit (278 mm waist). Their 269 / 268 mm template is about as wide as I can go comfortably without stupid stiff bindings.
