Strengths: the lemond reno has many strengths..very light weight, great handling, aerodynamic, shifts great, very smoothWeaknesses: the only weakness i can think of is the handle bar tape.. the only thing about it is that it's a light color so..or course.. it's gonna get dirty..no problem changing it though.Bottom Line: Okay...if any of you want a lemond..Go for it!! the lemond reno is by far the best 1.2 bike i've rode yet..it's got it all

Strengths: geometry
wheels
looks sweetWeaknesses: saddle
brakesBottom Line: (2008 model)
Great entry-level road bike for the price. I love the riding position- it works well for a long torso or just for a race-like position. I immediatley swapped out the sora front derailleur for a 105, but it still rubs when I'm in the big chainring. Couldn't stand the saddle after about 100 miles, and replaced it with a terry. Compared to an allez which is about the same price, you get one 105 component (allez is all sora I think) and fancier wheels. The brakes are terrible though.

Strengths: Component mix,
Frame Geometry,
Brakes and crankWeaknesses: Saddle, pedalsBottom Line: Was looking for a road bike that had a solid frame as a base and reasonable components that owuld not have to be replaced out of the box. I have ridden a number of road bikes over the years genrally building up a frame with parts groups I had, vs a new bike. But the LBS had this one n my size and there was little other than the pedals and seat that I wanted to change out. Heck....I would never bu a carbon seapost for myself. In any event It's a solid fit and a good ride and the tiers are not as bad as some people claim. Heck if I get 2000k on these on the chip-n-seal roads around here I'll be happy. The wheels give alot nicer ride than I would have thought, and the crank is stiff enough....I like the tripe vs, the compact, that is more of a personal preference. The real suprise is the FSA brakes...they stop on a dime....and I'm a clyde, so this really impressed me.
Genreally thsi is a solid allaround bike which is good for fitness and training rides. The Lemond geomtry is sopt on if you like a longer toptube.

Strengths: Frame geometry is great.
Bike is light.
Bike is fast.
Wheels appear to be light and strong.Bottom Line: I took several other bikes for a test drive, but this is the one that fit the best and was the most comfortable for the price. The Reno is light and fast, and the frame appears to be well built. I love the riding position this bike offers. Best price for a bike with the Tiagra / 105 Shimano mix.
