I love the Giant Defy Advanced. It handles like a dream, climbs & sprints well, and is very smooth. I have one equipped with Dura Ace, but would change to Campy in a heart beat. Deep V wheels are almost indestructable. They're heavy, but I don't race anymore and I demand durability. The Turbomatic is my favorite seat, 3TTT is one of the only companies that makes a 140 stem, which I need. I like the shape & feel of Deda bars. Cateye Enduro has all I need or want, including heavy duty wires, and the Timex is a dependable HRM that does everything I want it to & has large, readable digits. I've ridden Michelin tires & tubes for years. I just bought some Pro Optimums and have almost 1,000 miles on them. So far, they're great. My 2nd choice would be Krylions 25. The 25s make a very significant difference in ride quality, get better traction, & wear longer than the 23s. BACK to the Dream Bikes Section
