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

I called the store once, because I live in the area and was not happy with his smart-a$$ remark!

I also am interested in bicyclebuys.com, I just bought a Merlin Extralight frame and was looking for a build kit. They have an Ultegra kit with Bontrager Race X Light wheels for 1099.00. Will someone that is more knowledgeable please look at that build kit and see if you can tell why it is so cheap?

I'll just say people in the cycle industry are very optionated regarding manufacturers of frames and components.

I for one am not, but when I seen this thread I just needed to state my experience.

I bought from them a while ago, never spoke with them in person so can't comment on that. Fast shipping and got free patch kit so no complaints.
