Honestly that carbon stuff scares me...

Would you care to elaborate in another thread? I'm curious about this perspective. I'll admit I know nothing about bike materials, but it's always nice to learn something new.

Grassi,
This is a little more expensive than that Cannondale (I mean crack and fail ).... but it is a MUCH better bike. It's a $1000 bike on sale for $650.

I wanted to take that thing and keep riding, all the way back to my house. I'd be trying to keep it as long as possible if I were you. That and riding the crap out of it while I had it. Got any sick time saved up?

If you want spen a little less than $3000 to get a fast bike. Get some new lighter wheels and tires. Rotational weight is the biggest factor in a quick / fast bike.

I think his whole bike was lighter than just one of my wheel sets. It was stupid light, if you ask me.
