Jamis Quest or Satellite? Advice?
I'm buying a new bike and I'm torn between the Jamis Quest and the Jamis Satellite- my lbs says that they will upgrade the componentry to Ultegra on the Satellite for a total of around $1000....or swap out the wheels on the Quest and drop the price to around $1050. What would you do? Are the wheels on the Quest all that great? Because I'm leaning toward that...
Thanks!
Thanks!

I'd go with the Quest, but it's really a win-win situation.
Upgrading to Ultegra on the Satellite is intriguing, there should be quite a bit to change, so I do find that somewhat odd that they would go to all that time & trouble.

I'd get the quest... and I'd keep the wheels on it if at all possible. Easton/Velomax wheels usually get pretty good reviews.
