Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

OK...have followed your advises and in that research also found a Cervelo Dual. Have read reviews and comparisons, very nice bike. Does anyone know of any trustworthy internet bike retailer? That carries Felt/Cervelo/Fuji? Sorry again....FELT not Felts

why are you buying your bike on the internet, by the way? just curious....seems odd to spend that kind of cash online....maybe i just don't trust the webbernet that much yet.

Call your local bike stores. Ask what they carry, and go get some test rides. You will find the right bike this way much easier than scouring the internet, and it will be the right size too. You will also probably get discounted or even free maintenance.

Fuji does not do web sales, and I don't think Felt does either. Find an LBS, don't bother ordering from the net unless you know EXACTLY what you want and there is no choice.

Good question.
Answer: In the Port Richey are in Florida and the shops that I have been into..8 of them don't have what I want and try extremely hard to persuade me to buy what they have.

OK...I will venture out of the area...Orlando perhaps and Tampa. Fuji's I rode and it is a nice ride. With my weight the frame feels a little to flexible. I am on the hunt for a Cervelo Dual and put that one to the test.
Thank you and if anyone is from the area and know of any dealers that carry Felt and Cervelo...please let me know.
Again, Thank you all

Check with Village Bike Shop in Sarasota - www.villagebike.com. They have a shop off I 75 on Fruitville Exit ( Lakewood Ranch Exit ). They carry the full Cervelo line: I bought the Soloist 3 weeks ago very good people.

Talk with Robert, Chris or Ed.

Ok, I'll join and stop lurking.

I just ordered my Dual online and should see it this Friday.

I ordered it from HERE

Someone asked why order a bike online?

Closest Cervelo dealer is 2.5 hours away.
No sales tax.
Free shipping.
Free component upgrade.
