Anyone have one or know anyone that rides one? If so, what are your/their thoughts? I am very intrigued and am trying to gather as much info as possible. Thanks!

They look luscious but I would be nervous about something before test riding.
I looked at the paint colors, what? No leopard print? :eek:
I posted the same question over on Bikejournal awhile ago. Only got a couple of replys. No one believes you can get a bike that fits without riding it.
Love that purple/gold paint myself.
Outside chose the Leopard as the deal of the year or something this year.
Pretty, good components... They do have a 30 day money back guarantee, not sure what they do about all the shipping.
Let us know if you try it!
They'll let you try them out if you go up to their warehouse in Northern California. My in-laws live up there, so I might stop by and check them out when we go to visit (hopefully this summer). I've been in touch with the Leopard guys via email and they seem nice. Doh. Just realized I spelled leopard wrong in the thread title. :-(Quote:

They look like cool bikes. But yea, I would have to give it a test ride before buying. It's so darn expensive!
there are a TON of posts at bikeforums about leopard cycles (they are speculating that all the interest lately is a shill.... which i assume to mean planted posters and posts from the company?)
anyways... i think they are very pretty bikes! i've seen one or two on rides lately... hubby has their handlebars and LOVES them... won't ride with anything else! he just recentely bought one of their seatposts!
Thanks. I'll check that out. I think the interest might be stemming from the fact that they were just mentioned in Outside magazine's gear guide.Quote:

so which color so you like!?
I like the style that shows as much of the carbon fiber as possible. I think I'd get either blue or purple. Current bike is red, so will probably get something different.Quote:
