Thinking about a road bike

[warneral]

I bought a used trek 1000 wsd for 450 this summer. I don't regret it b/c I fell numerous times getting settled in with the clipless pedals. So the bike ended up with some bumps and bruises. I'm already wishing I had a nicer (slightly bigger) bike.

I test rode the Madone 4.5 and the Specialized Ruby Elite Apex last night. I loved them both and couldn't pick between the two so I decided to wait a while and work on fitting my current bike to me.

I wouldn't hesitate getting the Madone 4.5. The 2010 model was a good price but the saddle was much more uncomfortable than the 2011 saddle. It was a sexy bike for sure!!!
