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

I can't find any review of this site. Some of the prices on bikes seem a little too good, setting off alarms in my head.

https://goo-bikes.com

For example, Felt F2 with Di2 for $2,046? Come on.

1. Any bike web site out of Indonesia is highly likely to be fraudulent.
2. Any bike web site selling bikes that are only available through authorized B&M resellers, like Trek, Specialized and Cervelo is almost certainly bogus.
3. Combine either or both of those with prices that are too good to be true, then you definitely have a scam.
