My turn! (aka- Which road bike?)

Posted by: ErikL on 21 June 2004

Finally I'm shopping for a road bike, USD $1,300ish max. I'd like to test a bike with aluminum tubes/carbon stays since I've never ridden one. Otherwise, I'm thinking steel.

My current list includes the Bianchi Imola, Jamis Quest, and Trek 2100. If I could build a Surly Pacer with Campy Veloce within budget, I'd consider that too. Also, I'd grab some snazzy 2003 leftover if impressed.

I won't test ride until Wednesday at the earliest, so in the meantime- any suggestions, ideas, or opinions?

ag,

You guessed it, I'm actually a cycling photojournalist who get's to travel for free to all major euro races, and hangs out with Lance... ok m'be not.

Ludders,

It might be too late since you're not going to be wearing baggies and a full-face on that rig. CO's only Naim dealer is in Ft. Collins, but Bob and I are nearer/in Denver. Whats the deal w/ Whole Foods?

"Whats the deal w/ Whole Foods?"

Whole Foods is opening in FC, where it will crush the local Alfalfa's Market <sniff>.

In addition to EJL's comments, same deal as Netflix- a company whose stock you should've purchased long ago.

Dan and Bob, please check your PTs.
