no bikemonster...stay focused :-)

small 48cm

or what about the ktm strada?

splat how much for the giant. is it full ultegra?

she is looking at the caad8 as well as the caad10 the caad10 is about 20k and the caad8 7k less...is there really such a big difference between the 2?

hubs, wheels...any opinion on that?

nope this specific one mentioned here is not 20k, little less, but she has 20k to spend. I am also not a fan of those tektro brakes and fsa crank

have a newbie friend who can spend 20k on a new bike. As a 1st timer she is saying she only wants to buy a bike once and never again (I will not let her in on the secret that when the cycling bug bites you need a new bike every year....) so what would you suggest would be a good buy? She is looking at the following but I am not a big fan of aluminium especially if she is looking at doing good times and not just fiffeling around... Frame CAAD8, Optimized 6061 Alloy, BB30 Fork Cannondale Ultra, Carbon Blades, 1-1/8" Rims Alex RC24 Hubs Formula RB-51, RB-52 Spokes Stainless Steel, Bladed Tires Schwalbe Lugano 700x23c Crank FSA Gossamer BB30, 34/50 BottomBracket FSA BB30 Chain Shimano 105 Rear Cogs Shimano 105, 12-27 Front Derailleur Shimano 105, Clamp 34.9 mm Rear Derailleur Shimano 105 Shifters Shimano 105 Handlebars Cannondale C3 Compact Stem Cannondale C3, 31.8 mm Headset CAAD8 Si, 1 1/ 8 Brakes Tektro R580 Brakelevers Shimano 105 Seat Post Cannondale C3, Carbon wrap, 27.2 mm, 300 mm Saddle Cannondale Stage crmo Rails Seatpost Cannondale C3, Carbon wrap, 31.6 mm, 300 mm

how much does the frame weigh Onetime? where did you buy it from?

back derailler, front derailler, casette, chain...all XT, FSA tandem specific crank. Brakes, levers, shifters.. DA

we use xt combined with dura ace, much more durable

good luck with that

yippeeee now that makes sense.

hi all can we start the 2011 version? This thread has helped a lot last year.

i mix my pronutro with cornfalkes....any dietician worst nightmare

anything in the project office, admin, office administration field? looking for friend

its a mistake to loose the licensed ladies groups....baaaaack in the days I could very easily sit with the A-bunch guys but as soon as I had to race with the ladies I had my work cut out for me. Tactics will no longer be a priority but rather who can do the fastest time over 100 odd km's

I never said that these ladies are not putting in the effort, I merely stated that we never see anyone else on the podium. Small competition if you ask me

seeding of 13..still need race license spinnekop?
