I've read a few posts here saying that 3 Rensho's were mostly not that great to ride on the road (way too skittish for fast decents) because their geometries were based more on track bikes? Is there any truth to that?
The 3R had been sort a grail bike to me since I first saw my racer friend's example of the bike in the early 80's, but when I read the comments about it's not so forgiving handling, it gave me pause from getting one.....along with the now quite exhorbitant prices they are going for
