Hi,

You guys probably see a bunch of these from month to month, but here it goes :lol:

My name is Will, My roommate is a cyclist and is recommending that I get into the sport. He has directed me to certain bike manufacturers and they are all great, but I haven't quite found the one I'm looking for yet.

I want to get something with 105 components, preferably all aluminum with carbon fork. My budget is around $1400 tops, want to buy new. I was looking at the Felt F75 but I can't get this until Feb due to a recall, also, I want the UK black version which I can't get here in the US. So I'm looking at other options, I've already canceled out Fuji as a brand because of all the people riding them around here.

Your input is much appreciated.
