Hi - Me and some buddy's are just getting into the Traithlon thing, we have been runners and swimmers for many years however have had hardle anything to do with road bikes.

We are looking to buy some new bikes and have been doing some pricing and comparisson's on entry level bikes, the two bikes that standout within the price range are:

Orbea 2008 Enol
Scott 2008 Speedster S50

I would greatly appreciate anyone's opinion on either bike and or other entry level bikes that we should be checking out.

Cheers

Fearn

My local LBS dropped Scott. Said their customer service and warranty sucked.

Well for 1200, you can get an actual triathlon bike, the Jamis Comet. Jamis makes great bang for you buck bikes.
