Unfortunately, the "facts" will be quite subjective, which of course flies in the face of "factual" evidence. Doesn't mean you won''t have fun doing it, and that the results won't be interesting, but it falls short of "these are the facts!!!"

I, for one, am not particularly interested in what someone else thinks about how a particular bike felt to them. I am interested in how a particular bike feels to me. Unfortunately, my "fleet" is not infinite (nor is my disposable income), therefore I ride what I own (at least some of the time!).

Discussing this subject is rather like walking in quicksand.
