Thank you RoadRaven,

yeah... I've been reading the reviews. So it may look like either Guru or Cervelo P2. though Carbonio nor P2 were reviewed. Atleast, he reviewed Chrono'alu and P3s. ...So the Saber has improved quite a bit from 8 years ago... And nice to know first hand that Ti6/4 tubing tends to crack while Ti3/2.5 doesn't. P3, Guru Ti and even Litespeed Saber is out of my price range. Kuota seems like a nice bike but I'm not quite sold on them. And he didn't have too much good to say about Lucero or the Tiphoon besides both are out of my price range.

Maybe I'm willing to come down to Guru's Chrono'Alu instead of Carbonio. He gave a good review enough so that I might save some $$ and buy Guru's lowest of low entry bike, Chrono'Alu. P2 is very tempting too and your patner is really sold on them and with experience so I have to think long and hard. I think its going to come down to the groupo, wheel set and the total cost of each bike.

My finances took several steps back the other day. All four of my car tire needed to be replaced. Not completely worn out but rather damaged from bad alignment. So it'll be a while before I can buy a TT bike. It's good to work in an engineering company. dragged one of the boys with me to the shop so I wouldn't be taken for a ride.

Your partner is so generous and nice. Gosh feeling bad, so he splurges on you? WOW!!! How do you manage that?

And lastly, thank you for the photo of your bike. Boy the seat post looks really long. Beautiful bike though and you are thinking of upgrading???
