    FWIW, about 15 years ago, Klein were the MTBs to have!
    AT MY AGE, I SHOULD KNOW BETTER !!!

    If it's a pre-Trek they were excellent alu frames. The post-Trek ones are still pretty good but carbon basically killed them off.

    Nothing wrong with the Trek ones - they're just nothing too special like the original ones were - miles ahead of their time.
    I'm left handed, if that matters.

    You know what they sat about Klein bikes, don't you?
    If you run over an ant, you can tell if it's a red one or a black one.

    And after riding a Klein aelous, I'm inclined to agree with that statement.
