NEVER try a carbon bike....

.... DANGER of buying one right away

I came back to cycling recently after long and unpleased turns and twists in my life resulting an overweight, smoking and drinking. With blood pressure 140/90, cholesterol level right at the edge and extra pounds I was a perfect candidate for a stroke or a heart-attack. So, I said ENOUGH to myself this March. Quit smoking, gained even more weight as a result. So, I've got myself an entry level road bike - GIANT Defy3 and my life changed since I've lost some pounds and continue loosing them. My blood pressure is normalized and blood test is much better now Defy 3 served me good and I was very happy with it until one day I've tried TREK Madone 5.2. OMG... What a difference! My average speed went from 25 km/h to 30-32, I clime those hills without fear This bike confirmed one more time that Americans still CAN produce and design a great things First, was an Apple computer for me
Sorry about long post, but I want you to share my excitement
