Thanks for the advice.
I've got the Bianchi up for sale. If it sell I think I'm going to do it. Looks like a big upgrade from the Bianchi but I do like my Bianchi Axis. I don't know.... Maybe I'll just race the Bianchi this year and wait for the Ti w/ disc brakes that should come out next year....
I did ride the specialized tricross, $2400.00, and I liked it very much.
