So, I've finally got some money saved up for a new bike, around $1500 give or take. Looking for getting the maximum groupset for this money. I've looked around, and so far my best bets look like they are Bikesdirect and Neuvation.

I've got an all aluminum bike at the moment, and am wanting to give carbon a shot (unless you guys can talk me out of that?), as I found aluminum to be very uncomfortable so far. Also, would prefer a bike with Sram on it.

Thanks!
