good morning guys.say i have about 4K to spend for a roadbike.i would assume at least a 105 groupo for something around this price.which bike would you guys recommend that has a good frame that will be forgiving on long rides and relatively stiff enough? any idea where else carries the CAAD10(5) and pricing range?
thanks |

mtb this WAY.....do read the first page first
you can use mountainbikes in whatever races provided they are allowed.check the competition rules.sometimes you need to make sure your bike conforms to the standards or else you can be disqualified.malakoff allows mtb...who's is game for this? cr1comp i believe is much cheaper and if its seriously less than 6k it not too bad of a bike with a decent carbon frame and entry level components.my advise before getting a bike,do a self bike fit so that you roughly know your size and which frame better suits you in terms of geometry. stiffness and comfort is another story altogether calculator one alloy bike that i really like is CAAD10 |

QUOTE(ryan3721 @ Oct 21 2011, 05:32 PM) Could not agree more. Giant Malaysia is run by bunch of morons who only know how to cycle but know nuts on doing business/customer service. try sen aik trading in meru klang before the air asia thingy Just look at Taiwan Giant, I bet even a tiny Giant outlet can managed their FB better than the whole Giant Malaysia does. Anyhow am thinking of buying directly from Taiwan, with cheap air asia ticket and RM75 sport equipment fee, can get TCR Composite Shimano 105 ~8KG for RM4K. Giant Malaysia selling? After discount RM5.5k thank you. they sell alot of giants. getting two bikes at one go may get you a better discount |
