Hi there! I've been eyeing the Giant Avail Alliance also, and I was wondering if you ever ended up getting it. I would love some feedback if you have any! :)

I would never have considered a pink bike. Now I keep coming back to your photo. Rats.
You know, I was never that much into pink. I would NEVER have considered buying a pink bike. Mind you - I would never have considered going WSD back then either, but I have found that I am probably exactly who they make them for!
Then I went out to buy my first ever MTB and the best fit was a Kona Lisa HT (which was pink - seriously pink). The colour of that bike was very nearly the breaking point of that sale, but I finally allowed my head to rule and bought the bike that fitted best.
Since then I have embraced my "pink-ness" and I ended up with a Specialized Era Marathon which was anodised pink when I went for my full suspension rig. So now I have pink jerseys, pink gloves, pink tiara on my helmet at the moment and am known as "pinkbikes." Now all I have to do is find a pink roadie when my DD grows into my current black one!
That is one sweet-looking pinky Running Mommy! Maybe we need to have a thread with pictures of all of our pretty pink bikes. There seem to be lots of pink bike fans and lots of nice pink models out there now!
Perfect analogy!Quote:

But, for me, my average is a lot slower on that bike. It weighs about twice as much as my roadie. I guess I don't really care when I ride it, since I am just doing errands, meeting someone for lunch, or going on an adventure that does not require speed.

Can you share how you plan to do the handlebar change? I dislike the vibrations of my current handlebars. I have a newly purchased carbon handlebar set aside for that reason, but I know there are other options. I'd like to hear what you may do.
Aaaack! The bike shop below my office has that very bike and every time I see it, I want it. Keep in mind if you hate the saddle that there's still a white/pink Fizik Vitesse being made.
Glad you're having fun with it. My boss at the pet store bought a bike the other day and she said to me, "Ya know, I couldn't understand how excited you got about bikes until I got one of my own." Yeppa.
