Anyone seen or rode a Carrera bike? I saw one at a shop decked out in Campy and she was a beauty. I will be test riding soon and I am hounding DH to let me consider this one. Just wondering if they ride as good as they look?
I will shamefully admit a "pretty" bike is something I want, not just a good fit.

I am thinking of what Red Rose Imports (http://www.redroseimports.com/rri_carrera_venus_s.html)(the North American import company) has listed as the Athena. The shop had the bike set up with Campy Veloce, which I know is not their best stuff. This frame looks like good quality though and I could always upgrade the components later. The price with Veloce was about $250 under budget.
