That's a non issue IME. By "stacking up weight" I mean like a week's
grocery shopping, with cans. 8 lbs on the back shouldn't dent the
handling at all.

I didn't think it should be a factor, either. Maybe I was too tense in
the shoulders, as you say. I was certainly thrilled by the speeds I
was reaching...until it stopped at 29 mph!!

I love the SMGTe. I hope HP Velo sees fit for a carbon or titanium
version in the future! Surprised they haven't already done so.

Also, I hope in their next (re)iteration they redesign things to allow
for a better fit for standard bike accessories somehow...my CatEye
1000, my AirZound, my Arkel panniers...all do not fit as "cleanly"
out-of-the-box and require a bit of jerry-rigging....
