Ranks of Things - Help Me Get My Bearings
I know this topic is somewhat subjective but... just like cars or anything else out there, there are top, middle, and bottom of the line brands and products. Help me shorten my learning curve as far as things go in the cycling world.
It seems Shimano and Sidi are top of the line shoes. I ordered shimano r220 '09 model.
Garmin and Cateye seem to be the better computers. I see one of those in my future.
What about bicycle padded shorts/chemosis?
I got a pair if Attack Pearl Izumi shorts but after wearing them once do not think the padding was all that dense or comfy. That made me wander what's regarded as the best or better chemosis.
Oh, and just a point of curiosity... What bike is considered to be better Pinarello Dogma or it's Carvelo equivalent? I need to know in case I win the lottery.
