Still looking into which bike to get. I've called around most of New England and checking with various bike stores. I've found a Felt F80 with full 105 parts all around, 3 wheel crank set, and Alex wheels for $750. Also found a F75(a small step up) for $900 with 105 and Ultegra parts, 2 wheel crank set, and Shimano WH-R500 Aluminum wheels. I also found a Giant OCR Composite 3 for $800 w/ 105's. I could go any which way. I don't think the Giant is for me as I'm looking into serious riding and several triathlons. Any thoughts as to what you think would be the best? Should I go for the F75? Specs are below.
