Christie Posted August 30, 2007 Share Here are 2 reviews of the BMC: cyclingnews:http://www.cyclingnews.com/tech.php?id=tech/2007/reviews/bmc_promachine07Pez:http://www.pezcyclingnews.com/?pg=fullstory&id=3870 If you are looking for performance, and have no style/exclusivity issues, have a look at: Cervelo Soloist & R3, as well as the top Felt road frame. I dont like ISP designs, but if you dont mind them, the Scott Addict & Look 595 (I heard a Cajees were selling them at good prices) Of the above, I sort of lean most towards the Soloist. Lastly, if you want something more uniqe, take a look at the De Rosa Idol, which Garzelli used to win some stages at the '07 Giro:http://www.pezcyclingnews.com/?pg=fullstory&id=5241&status=TrueI think an Idol with some of those red Fulcrom Racing zero wheels wil look very nice.Christie2007-08-30 03:02:15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie Posted August 30, 2007 Share Sorry, I forgot to mention Colnago. If it fits your budget, how about one of these: Christie2007-08-30 02:49:39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammajoor Posted August 30, 2007 Share Who is riding a BMC road bike' date=' which frame and what is it like? would like to look at upgrading to a new frame. any suggestions.[/quote'] The BMC could be seen as a dutchmans bike ie Brandy Met Coke, but those who have ridden it say it is ultra responsive and stiff albeit not the lightest frame . That my dear friend is why most people call it a Bike Met Class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie Posted August 30, 2007 Share If you dont mind the all American: "we love Lance & all things US Postal" thing, also have a look at the new Trek frames. They came up with a design with some real innovations, it looks like a very, very good frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
