Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

2001 Specialized vs 2005 trek 1000?

Hey guys, quick question. I recently got my first roadie, a 05 Trek 1000, which I am happy with. I now have the opportunity to buy a 01 Spec. Allez with full Shimano 105. ITll prolly cost me about $50 difference after selling my Trek.

Basically, my question is: is the upgrade from Soras to 105s worth the hastle of buying and selling? All else equal? Ive never ridden a bike with 105s. Only heard how much better they are.

Thanks!!
