Price Paid:
$245.00
at bikeparts.net Favorite Ride:
anything local Bike Setup:
Daytona 10spd RD FD crank veloce hubs PhilBB
Mavic cxp21 (I think) Michelin supercompHD 23mm in front with conti3000 25mm foldable in back--both pumped to 100lb.
Ouzo pro fork with ITM stem/bar
King HS Shimano/look 105 pedals
Flite with Bontrager aluminum seatpost Summary:
Some qualifications--I am 185Lb, I pedal in squares-and mainly mtb. Been riding a steel Thron tubed Univega x 1yr, and before SL Stowe X 10yrs --never ridden any other road aluminum, or ti or CF(maybe I am missing out on something?)
Love it....especially going downhill..use a lot less braking going into a corner
I am sure Cannondales or any others will ride as nice (maybe nicer?) but this frame is less than half priced..
Bianchi Megatube copy...
3.6lb frame
paid $225 +$20shipping Strengths:
Turns much easier than my other road bikes --lean and countersteer--as comfortable as my steel in that the impact maybe a little more but minimal vibrations..
rides nice and straight when hammering
Way cool near mirror finish...
Much stiffer BB than the new Univega
Can feel the difference in accelerating
CHEAP!!!!!
CHEAP!!!!! Weaknesses:
NONE...unless you want name brand...
only comes in 1 inch Similar Products Used:
only above mentioned road bikes
