No experience here but I read somewhere that it make the bike feel more like all the other standards bike on the market, that it loose it's edge but thats only what I read I have never tried a long before.

demo it, find out for yourself. The TT is essentially a CityX with the SS frame. If I were doing it over again today, I would have bought the TT. You will notice a difference out on the freeway at above 80 (the longer wheel base is more stable) but watch out for the po-po
