    Have you tried these road bikes?

    Hi all! I just discovered this message board and I thought I'd see if anyone can share opinions on either a Klein Reve X or a Litespeed Firenze. I think I've narrowed down my choices to these 2 bikes, and I still need to get out there and give 'em a test ride, but while I'm waiting to do that maybe you can share some pros and cons.

    I'm still having a hard time justifying the cost, but I could be spending A LOT more . Although, I suppose that using it to commute will save me a bunch of gas money!

    hmmm, I'd say having bike lust for Litespeeds is a pretty good endorsement!

    I'm trying really hard to be good, research my options, and not rush into buying anything, but it's sooooo hard.... gimme gimme gimme!

    I don't know the price range of those 2 bikes but if you have a Serotta dealer in town look at the Fierte Ti. Its a really nice bike, well made, high quality.

    Cool, Kathi, thanks! I'll check into that. Both of the bikes I'm looking at run about $2,300, so I definitely want to make the right decision.
