    Hi Ulle, and welcome !!

    Sorry about the bike situation, I hope you can find one that you like.

    Where in Sweden do you live? I worked for a few weeks in a lab in Uppsala and then traveled by train through Stockholm, Lund, Malmoe, on my way to Denmark. This was many, many years ago. Sweden is wonderful.

    Oops, appologies for hijacking your thread, Dirt Girl - congrats on your new bike!!! May you have many long and happy miles together.

    how about a used Terry?

    If you're in the 1000-1500 peso range, maybe you should look on the terry site at their used bikes. I got a used Terry Despatch years ago (not from Terry, though - I found mine in a used bike shop). Wore the gears to death and last year went shopping around. I loved the titanium, but in the end I couldn't bear to part with my Terry so I had my local bike magician outfit her with Shimano Ultegra....I love the fit. I would be buried with this bike, except it would be a real waste of a great bike.....I did see some nice titanium, Airborne, at the local Sun N Ski shop, for considerably less than the Litespeeds. Litespeed has come out with a WS bike, but it's definitely more than $1500. My recommendations are based on my PETITE size (halfbit...duh)....

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    A name has not come to me yet. My mountain bike is almost 1.5 years old and her name still eludes me.

    Not counting an old 10-speed that I barely rode or the 30-year-old bike that someone gave me but didn't fit right, this is my FIRST road bike.
    Plays in dirt!

    Congrats on the new bike! I'm going to look at Bianchi this weekend. Were you specifically looking for steel? Do you prefer that frame material over aluminum? Yours is a beauty!!
