Does anyone out there ride a Tourmolet? Also how does it rate to other
$1000.00 bikes.

Thanks so much

ghost ...

i got a tourmalet in april. i've put about 600 miles on it. its a nice bike, fast, nimble, fairly light. i've had no real problems with mine since i've had it. i've upgraded mine with time atac pedals and a fizik arione saddle. how does it fit you? have you test rode other bikes? you want to get the one that fits the best in your price range.

Thanks for the reply,
I looked into the Trek 1500,Specialized Allez Eliite,Giant OCR1 and the Cannondale R600.
I liked the Tourmolet the best as far as the fit and the components. I just purchased it yesterday
and had a great ride until the rain came.I got the Tourmolet on sale for $850. I did have to replace
the saddle as well as the peddles but other then that I love it so far.

Thanks,
Ghost.
