I was very impressed but the Domane was too similar to my Emonda SLR. I would up buying a Cannondale SuperX the next year because I like what the Domane offered but wanted one a bit farther away from a road bike.
Yeah, bike companies and bike shops have had demo programs for decades which is why Stuart's "
have to dump another $2000, $4000 or $5000 on a bike just to see
if it is better" excuse is so strange.
I guess I need to select a more obvious sarcasm font next time.
