:D Well if some of you remember a few months ago i began inquiring about 'which would be better caad5 frame or a tcr frame blah blah.....then i was in my LBS poking around and i stumbled across the new TCR 1 Composite....that was it, i was set, that was the bike i was going to get.
<months later>
Now i have it! its sitting in my hallway! i just picked it up last night, so I havent been able to take it for a spin. its so purty, with the matte carbon fiber finish

Ah the siren song of the new bike! I think some bikes just sing to you and then you "know". When I bought my bike I knew nothing about them...but I just knew it was the right one. I've had no complaints.
Congrats on the new ride!

I think Giant products are under-rated. That TCR Composite is a beautiful bike that has gotten very good reviews. I have never bought a new "good" bike. Mine are rebuilds on nice used bikes. A TCR might be my first, but it will be a while.
Ill try and post some pics sometime this week....after i wipe the drool off of the bike :D
congratulations on your new bike.:beer:
