So, what makes it better than any other bike?

As far as people I've met goes, I have found that there is like a bell-curve of ego vs skill. Beginners don't tend to be at all arrogant, neither do the really good riders (eg Johnny Dawe), it's only the tools in between (not that everyone in between is a tool) who tend to be up themselves/full of shit... just my experience.
