[QUOTE=VegasTriker;16657751]Wow, this is a pretty expensive bike for someone who has not ridden in 30 years.
My older bike was stolen; it was chained to the bottom of my rear outdoor stairwell of my apartment building. The thief sawed off part of the staircase bannister and took the bike.
I live in an upper floor apartment and I HAD to have a bike I can carry upstairs and keep safely in my apartment.
I purposefully went to a large bike shop with huge selection, tried and hefted many bikes. My new bike, all carbon, is one I can safely and readily lift up a twisting two flight stair case. And, yes, I know that the lighter the bike, the costlier.
