Anyone ride the new Velo Vie Vitesse 400 R?
I'm in the market for a new frame and they have a good deal on these framesets. $1400 for the new Vitesse 400 R.
One big downside to these bikes is that you can't really test ride them since you buy direct and I don't live in AZ where they are sold. End of the day I would be taking a leap of faith buying one. I see them around town..
But does anyone have one and willing to share their reviews?
I'm an enthusiast, but like to ride hard, hit the hills. But at the same time want something with vertical compliance.
Let me know your thoughts if you have rode or own one?
Cheers,
Shea

It looks nice and it sounds reasonable at $1400, but I would personally put the money towards something else with a solid reputation. For example, a NOS Look 585 can still be found for near that price mark. That would be my choice if I was looking to buy a frameset with $1500.
