Pinarello FP1, Kestrel Talon, or?
Hi All,
My main bike is a LOOK 566, but I'm trying to buy a decent training bike.
My budget is around $1,500 max in US dollars.
I found 2 bikes that are different in frame material and geometry, but close in components. Which of these would you choose. Or do you have other recommendations?
Thanks in advance
