QUOTE(KTCY @ Oct 1 2013, 10:27 AM) @bold : weight and stiffness ?! definitely not comparable... high end ones will have weight that no alloy can match and it will always be stiffer... and with very advanced layups... carbon can also be made to be vertically compliant...

why not ask her to borrow a 2k - 3k road bike and see if she can chase her target down...
no point buying it and then find out it could not do what she intend to do with it... frankly, getting a road bike is not a guaranteed speed increase...
so, you might want to advise her to find things out before investing into anything since it might not be the bike...
