Hey there,
I am a relative newbie and I have narrowed the choice down to these two bikes. I rode them both and cannot decide which is the better bike? total carbon (supercourse) or the combination of the felt75,they both were speed machines to me. I liked the components of the felt better than the raleigh, but they could be upgraded with the price quote I got for the raleigh equal to the price of the felt. Would the carbon frame be more comfortable for a ride like the STP or would the felt ride just as smooth. I ride a 58 or 59 size frame. Pleeese help me with a little advice. I also like to support local companies and raleigh is close to home, but what has the word on the street been about the replacement of a carbon frame from raliegh?
