Buying a bike is so much more work than buying a car

[Kano]

I echo rouge's post on the Giant thing, as I just spent the spring looking for a new bike and finally getting a carbon Giant TCR cw last month. Shimano tiagra components with some 105 mixed in, double, and compact cranks. I got a really good deal being that the bike is last year's model, so I didn't pay full price. I love the ride! Smooth as silk.

So mine's a Specialized Roubaix, but I gotta echo the smooth as silk ride on the carbon frame.....
