Road Cycling - Which bike??

Looking Getting a new road bike. Stuck between the Trek 520, Trek 2100, and Specailized Sequoia Comp or Elite. Any thoughts about thes bike??? Thanks in advance?????

Trek and Specialized both make great bikes. Try them out and buy the one you like best. :D

They are all good bikes/ The 520 is a touring bike, the Seqouia is
a fun bike, and the 2100 is a high performance bike. They are all nice, the question is whether you want to go touring, have fun, or ride a racy bike real fast. Or to put a slightly different question to you....which bike do you want to get first? :D

trek 2100 that way you can do both.

I agree with Late; also there is no such thing as a good "both" type of bike. It may do touring ok and it may do racing ok but it won't do neither real well. If your touring or just want a very comfortable ride the Trek 520 is a good bet, plus it has a lifetime warranty. But you do need to test each model to decide for yourself.

Thanks for the replies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was trying to choose between a specialized allez elite and trek 2100 so slightly different bikes to chose between. i decided on the 2100. the specialized was very nice, but a few things bugged me....the loud freewheel when i wasn't pedaling and twitchy turning. i also didn't like the compact frame geometry much (purely aesthetic..dunno if they use that in the sequoia) either. one way that is somewhat feasible is give a trustworthy friend cash to buy either bike. and if he brings one of the bikes home, if you react negatively, you know that's not the bike for you haha

I also picked the Trek 2100. I fell in love with the frame on the first test drive and havent regretted my decision for a second. This is my first road bike, and I'm very happy I took the plunge. The bike is very stiff, but still rides deliciously smoothly. The carbon fork and rear stays really shine on this bike. I havent done any long-ish rides (more than 12 miles or so), nor have I purchased any padded shorts, so I cant really comment on the seat that much, but I really would reccomend taking a 2100 out for a spin.

BTW, if you want pedal advice...the clipless that come on the bike may or may not be decent pedals, but I got my LBS to swap in some Ultegra SPD SL's for $60. Excellent pedals.

i have a new marin san marino chro/moly-carbon ultegra bike i need to sell
