Rep Power: 511 how supportive are the wheels on those small of spokes? i personally think you should have saved that $1500 and got a turbo after saving a bit more, but i guess everyone has to have more interestes than just their car.

Rep Power: 412 It's a racing bike. It's not made for jumping ramps, etc so it doesnt have to be supportive. It's made to be light and fast.
My family paid for it as my christmas gift. So I still have plenty to spend on my turbo.....hehehe

Rep Power: 311 Whoa, that must have cost some bank! I bought a Giant Rainier last year. Cost a lot (to me $700), for a mountain bike, but I love it. I can't believe there are bikes out there that are upwards of $2000+....
whats the wieght on that bad boy? It's pretty nice. I prefer mountains myself so I went with a specialized with front suspension. The whole bike wieghs like 12 pounds. I bet yours is even lighter. That biznatch should fly (no pun intended

Rep Power: 364 Nice. This spring, I'll be buying a Trek Recreational 1500 or Performance 2100.
The Trek High Performance Madone 5.9 is just sick. ALL carbon fiber....
That's a negative, buddy. The only professional cyclist I know of that can't have kids is Lance Armstrong and that's for very different reasons.
