Eugene Posted October 19, 2009 Share For some reason, i have this suspicion that the Wheeler frame is aluminium wrapped in carbon. I'm not too sure though, but do your homework before buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bat-ass Posted October 19, 2009 Share the giant all the way!!!!but that giant is not an 07 model... its either 05 or 06... but either way carbon giants are tops!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101SCC Posted October 19, 2009 Share Alu, find a decent CAAD Cannondale and you will never look back. Light, Rigid and Great Geometry for your height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankman Posted October 19, 2009 Share between those two... you will be much happier deep down with the giant! wheeler who? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquatic Posted October 19, 2009 Share If its the black 07 model wheeler frame you talking about,i would double check,i remember many guys said it was flexing alot,the 08 red/white is a huge improvement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicked_C Posted October 19, 2009 Share Decided not to go for the Wheeler but managed to get a Felt FC carbon frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie Posted October 19, 2009 Share Agree on the alu Cannondale CAAD9 frame. SUPER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPW# Posted October 20, 2009 Share Cannondale super expensive too! , but then again they will outlast most other cheaper brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101SCC Posted October 20, 2009 Share JPW#, not as expensive as you would think. Built a 6.7kg Caad9 Super Record Shamal Ultra for R35,000.00. That's the same price as a Super6 Hi Mod Frame! For 2010 CAAD9 comes with a BB30 Bottom Bracket, so for a bit more you can get a SI SL Hollowgram Crank, Drop the weight to under 6.6kg and you in for R40,000.00! Add some EastonSLX EC90 wheels and you are +- 6.2kg at R42,000.00, plus it's rigid as hell. New Bianchi advertised at 110,000.00! Almost 3 CAAD9's for one Bianchi...
