When you called your friends to ask advice on
buying a bike they told you a few things: Get the right fit,
get carbon, and get a pure Shimano component kit. Depending
on how your measurements work out you may land on the Scott
CR1 Team. Your bike buddies will approve. Scott uses their
all-carbon CR1-HMF NET frameset, a lot of acronyms for a frame
that retains performance oriented stiffness but with understanding
fit and ride comfort. The Scott carbon frame hovers over a
pair of genuine Mavic wheels dressed in Continental’s
sporty ultra race tires.
At less than $2000 (OK, barely…)
this is more bike than anyone expected- and enough bike for
almost everyone.
