Hi everyone, I am new to this board and find it very informative.

My dilemna is this. I bought a norco crd-1 a couple of weeks ago. Fortunately it has snowed here, and I haven't taken this bike out. I set up aero bars on it as I compete in a couple of sprint triathlon's. I was in the bike shop yesterday and saw this wonderful looking bike made by OPUS.

It is the SCHERZO model. I know about some components but I am not sure if this bike would be a better bet than the norco. I am paying the exact same price for either bike , so cost is not a factor. Look wise, I prefer the Opus, as I am a sucker for yellow, lol. But I want to make sure I get more bike for my buck. Here is the link to the opus. So any feedback on these bikes would be appreciated. I have until monday to decide and then its a done deal. So please help a newbie get on the right path.

Thanking you in advance, Dean
