My first post!

I have a Vita Comp 2009 model - bought it six months ago - and I love it. I chose a flat bar as I have arthritis in my neck and need to keep my head in neutral position. The Vita fitted me just fine (I tried a Giant CRX and a couple of other bikes first).

I've found it very reliable, had no problems with it except for a few wonky gear changes which can probably be traced to the rider herself! The gears are fine for rolling hills which is all I have around here.

I ride about 150kms a week (sorry, ladies, I can't convert to Imperial measurements off the top of my head). My longest ride was 100kms. It does get a bit tiring with your hands in the one position all the time, so I try and vary that a bit on my longer rides.

And one more thing - the swirly patterns on my model are lovely to look at!
