A new carbon fiber framed bike for $2-3000

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

The Lemond Zurich is pretty sweet. Lists at about $2600. I liked it better than the Madone I test rode. Climbs well, and felt a little more stable on descents.

Does not need to be high end grouppo as technology moves along so quickly so Ultegra is OK.

What do you people on BF suggest I test ride?

Post your new ride on the +50 fourm.

I would build a bike starting with a Look 555 frame or different model number.
