Does anyone have first hand knowledge of PF vs Giant TCR vs Opal Orbea vs other similarly priced? thank you
About 1000 miles on the frame.............I ride mountains most of the time.............I have done about 50 mph downhill once and it was stable ( I just worried about a flat tire or some other catastrophic failure and slowed down )............They are sending me a new frame as I write this so it will go up for sale with the FSA Pro Carbon crankset and PF front fork and FSA headset. I am thinking $700 with $35 to ship continental US. Can't beat that. All in all I have in that setup........$1050. That's a $315 savings for someone to start a build!
