Windsor Timeline. The ability to run fatter tires is very appealing to me as I'd rather take the weight penalty and ride fatter, puncture resistant tires than be limited to 23-28mm race tires. The Kilo WT also looks nice and fits wider tires.
Yeah, I suppose that is a bit contradictory of me. I suppose I'm just attracted to the idea of a decent looking, supposdly decent preforming bike for under $400.
Hmm, I've heard people badmouthing windsor, though that doesn't appear to be too bad. Though it appears to only have a freewheel? Am I blind, or just reading the page wrong?
My gut is still leaning towards the Kilo , since I've been referred to that many a time before, from other folk.
