I am biased, but I'm head-over-heels in love with my little Redline--did my very first cyclocross race on Sunday and had an utter blast (even though I was sorta in pain and wanting to puke by the end). I never test rode it before we pulled the trigger, but it fits like it was made for me. In some ways I like the fit better than my road bike. It's a bit less aggressive...it just wants to go out and have fun no matter where I take it.
