Sorry, I should have been more specific. The 35 is the 2008 and the 30 is the 2009.

The 2008 FW35 has FAR better components than the 2009 ZW30. 105 is much better than the Sora & Tiagra.
For bikes with the same original retail ($1099), they really downgraded the components on the 2009. That's probably why the shop hasn't lowered the price of the 2008 that much. Still, you should be able to get a couple hundred bucks off, especially since, as RunningMommy noted, the 2010 models will be out soon.
As usual you guys rock! Thanks for helping me and my spouse get our first road bikes. The help here is truly priceless.![]()
