raleigh's fixie is classy as hell--and it's steel, unlike the Giant
Definitly your opinion... not everyone is a steel is real snob! The AL bike is stiffer... and when out of the saddle on a climb on a fixie AL is much better! Who really cares if it is a compact either - time and time again compact has been as good if not better than convential... what makes the giant worse than the other bikes...
Al vs Steel - who really cares anymore!
I will say I like the Cdale - Another road bike that I like the feel of!
