I too like your paint job better than the previous model (I have one also; the old one in blue).

Enjoy!!


Me too! I got the TCR C3 about 3 weeks ago with blue in the older "less desirable" paint scheme - the bike is SICK - I put on Ultegra derailleurs, Shimano wheels, cranks, and breaks - quite economically took off 1-2 lbs, since I had these components on an '07 Felt F75 that I'm selling. The new paint is nice, although I do like the exposed carbon on my frame. The flashy blue and silver just seems so...'90's. The bike climbs and descends like a dream, but take it EASY with those tektro breaks, or make that your first upgrade unless you've got good insurance - nearly blew it badly on my first fast descent!!

Congrats on your new ride - yet another Giant rider that has seen the light! (But please stop falling over unclipping - your bike hates it, and you should be charging $$$ to provide entertainment for other riders!)
