General Cycling Discussion - Tirreno Bikes at Performance
Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.
Is anyone familiar with these bikes? Own one or know someone who does? They seem to be pretty well equipped at a decent price. '04 Razzo 3.0 7005 AL frame, w/Shimano 105 for $870. Don't know if this is full 105 or not but...
thx
:)
I looked at the Tirreno at the local Performance store. I found that the offering at Supergo was better. The have the Scattante R550, alum frame, carbon forks and full 105 for $699. Go one step up, you get the R650 w full Utegra. I'm waiting to pick mine up this weekend.

Frames are probably built at one of Giant's plants. They look interesting, but I'd rather pay a little more and something that fits perfectly.
Scattante, Tirrero, Douglas, etc are all generic catalog Taiwanese aluminum frames.
They aren't horrible but they aren't a bargain either. You get what you pay for.
