buffy Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 I need help on 3 road bikes? Trek Madone 4.7 Ultegra Silverback Space3.0 Giant TCR Composit 1 CD20 Any use full comments before I buy
splat Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Have you test ridden any of them? Have you been measured up properly?Perhaps the geometry of the one bike might suit your better than the other two.Correct fit is more important than colour or spec etc. (I.M.H.O.)
SeaBee Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Option D... for a 'Dale! More seriously - ride them! You'll immediately fall in love with one. It will just fit you like a glove. Buy that one. And while you're going through the effort, consider a option D!
cosborne Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Which one makes you wanna run your fingers across the top tube? I often just touch my bike. I know this is normal. Choose the one that makes you wanna do this.

They say TREK has problems with getting spares. Silverback is best value for money but thanks anyway will ride them and see.

cosborne Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 After sales as in warrenty on the frame? Servicing parts you can do yourself- but a cracked frame or fork I understand is another story entirely.

pastapouch Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 I would go for the Giant... but as Seabee says go and take the bike for a test ride.
buffy Posted February 16, 2011 Author Posted February 16, 2011 Giant.. hands down!Thanks for the input

wynandvdmerwe Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) Personally not a Giant fan, but I like this Giant much more than the other two Edited February 16, 2011 by wynandvdmerwe
