My take on the whole monster cross thing, definately not as monster as some, more so than others. Ah, what do I know?

Chris, looks awesome. How's the ride? Could you give up on an Inbred for this? The pricepoint is very tempting. I'm getting rid of my chi chi Ti 29er and thinking of reducing the flock to one MTB and a Cross ride as my only two... just wish the Moto had the option of a shifty thin on the rear ala x-check.
Oh yeah, meant to say, again great minds. i have the 18 oz Klean Kanteen... only issue i have is that i can't squeeze the bottle to make my refreshment shoot out. How do you like the monster Klean?
Hey Bob, Once again sorry for the s-l-o-w response. I like the Moto but it's on the twitchy side, due I guess to the track-like geometry. I'd have liked a derraileur tab as well but you're pretty limited with the 120mm spacing, could probably squeeze a 126mm hub but anything larger would require cold setting. This was an inexpensive way for me to get on a cross bike but I'm still leaning towards swapping the parts over to a CrossCheck down the road. So, in answer to your question, I'd choose the Inbred. As to the Klean, that's not even the monster. Mine's a 27 oz job and they have a 40 oz as well. I like it but I'm not ready to give up standard bottles yet.
