The gears shift smoothly and the cables are sleeved almost their entire length so there is little chance of griming them up. You could even file out the final cable guide in a few minutes and run fully sleeved cables if you wanted to. The bike's geometry is well suited to fast riding and the steep saddle post angle improves things when raised up. Weaknesses: The biggest weakness on my bike were the tyres.
