The Trek 520 is flimsy? I have heard for more positive stories and reviews than negative ones. In the grand scheme of things, is Cannondale really a big company?
The Rivendells are beautiful bikes with their lugs and such. But you are buying something about style as well as function. Long story short, in my opinion, you can get something just as functional for $1500 complete.
Did anyone else notice that Burley stopped selling bikes?
