ASTANA Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 What do you guys think about this bike ? Frame wise - stiffness and comfort etc. Very nice looking bike and price not too bad for a 09 bike. I know this is not a "pro tour" bike but it sure looks Eurostyle!!
AndreZA Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 There is nothing wrong with it. Stop being blinded with all the stuff the pros ride.
wannabesub3 Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 Had a look at the same bike the other day really awesome machine, can choose between SRAM, or new Dura-Ace, be careful my LBS said they had a recall on the Wheelsets though, Make sure you get the Proper Replaced wheelset, I really Like the Ultegra Spec bike Think the Blue looks a lot Nicer
avatar Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 just got one with 2009 Dura Ace grouppo! Its superhot and rides like a dream! less than 7Kg!! its just super!
ASTANA Posted June 8, 2009 Author Posted June 8, 2009 There is nothing wrong with it. Stop being blinded with all the stuff the pros ride. Just mentioned it for those who follow what the pro's do. I can not afford to change a bike every year to stay on par with my choice of pro team. LOL - I like astana, but don't like the trek! Loved BMC when astana use to race them - with VINO
WorcesterWheelers Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 You OBVIOUSLY know what I think of this bike......
javadude Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 RRP is arround 55K VELO While it may be a bargain compared to a similarly equipped Pinarello or Look, its still a frightening amount of money.
ASTANA Posted June 8, 2009 Author Posted June 8, 2009 You OBVIOUSLY know what I think of this bike...... Jy moet nie hierop comment nie. Maar dankie in anyway! Ek dink dis great
singletrackmind Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 That bike is good enough for the SA champ 2009... Just ask Jamie Ball about it
ASTANA Posted June 9, 2009 Author Posted June 9, 2009 That bike is good enough for the SA champ 2009... Just ask Jamie Ball about it Don't you think its a different story when your sponsored . Would love to hear from some of the pros what their dream bike must be ? Surely some of them don't like their bikes very much. For me I wouldn't be to happy to ride on a Barloworld Bianci those bikes are just Ugly - and does not match the team kit at all. Surely guys in F1 also want to ride a different brand - lets say you ride honda, but would love to ride Ferrari or merc - you get the point. The bike is good for me, I can't pay much more and its beautiful.ASTANA2009-06-09 01:44:06
