Many good replies. As stated above, the rationale for keeping the schwin is that it is pure roadbike, and I have this little race coming up. The schwinn had some funky vintage aero bars on it, and is a size too large, but I must say that it feels very quick. That bike is very light. And I think the seven speed makes a big difference.

I love that centurion, but it does not seem to really be geared to go fast. Too much space between gears.

I have had my eye on a 58 cm ironman for a while. If I could get the price down enough I would sell the schwinn, but until I have a replacement road bike the schwinn must stay.
