In my case, I'd never heard of CAAD before I saw it at the LBS. The choice wasn't about hype for me. It was about what I want and what I like. My opinions were formed after I bought the bike and rode it for a while.
Best way to do it.
One of the problems with BD is that unless you live close to one of it's retail stores
(I believe at last count, there were 3 in the southwestern U.S.), how does one know
if they like the bike or not? I kid BD a lot, but in reality, if it works, it works.
I just personally prefer to ride a bike before I buy it. $1,000. is a lot of coin for me.
