Date Reviewed: July 5, 2003

Strengths:    Sloping geometry very comfortable.Campagnolo Veloce/Mirage group much nicer than Shimano 105,or even Ultegra.FSA cranks and ISIS drive bottom bracket.

Weaknesses:    The pedals it comes with are Wellgo R4's hard to click in and out of,not enough float swapped for Look PP357's.Tektro brake calipers weak and spongy,swapped for Campy Centaur.

Bottom Line:   
Very nice bike for the price. Handles very well, very predictable.The sloping geometry makes the bike very stable. Love the campy components.Put about 400 miles on bike so far and love it.Excellent bike for people on a budget, or for someone looking to get serious about cycling with out spending a serious amount of cash.
