I have seen some bikes on sale for under 4hundo that aren't bad but I guess I don't really many exciting bikes that cheap full price (but the Kilo is on sale too). I guess it isn't a horrible bike but I just don't get the excitement that others seem to get from it.

Mainly I am not a fan of BikesDirect they use one sort of flashy but cheap part or slogan to sell a bike "custom aero wheels" "powerful hydraulic disc brakes" "highest technology level" "Dura-Ace" (but only in the bar end shifters because that is all that exists for Shimano in 9 speed). Cheap stuff has to be sold like that because nobody wants it if they are truthful about it. However I really don't want to get into a big argument about BikesDirect.
