No, I got The Lovely Madone last October 30. The same day that I had a chest tube put in to inflate my collapsed lung from the bike wreck the previous day.

I've put about 4400 miles on him this year. But I was never happy with the wheels. I never felt that the Bontrager Race wheels that were on it were worthy of the rest of the bike. I suppose they assume the you will upgrade the wheels.

I plan to use these wheels as race/special rides wheels and use the heavier wheels as training wheels. But I can see that it will be very difficult to take them off.
