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

Fuji Professional 1.0 vs Kestrel RT700

Been wanting a new bike for about a year now and I am about to pull the trigger on the Kestrel RT700 the BD sells for $1995. Today I received an e-mail though from a friend who told me that a LBS is clearing out the 2007 Fuji Professional 1.0 for $2199. Here are the stats from the LBS on the Fuji

=========
2007 FUJI Professional 1.0
Full Carbon Frame & Fork.
Dura-Ace 10 speed drive train (shifters, front & rear derailleurs).
FSA Carbon tripple crank with external bottom-bracket.
FSA Carbon seat post and bar.
Mavic Ksyrum Elite wheelset.

=========

The components on the Fuji are better but it seems that a lot of people really like the Kestrel RT700 Frame.

Not really a racer but like to do 3 or 4 century rides a year and go out 3 times a week with a local bike club that will do 2 25 mile rides and 1 70 mile ride.. Also like to climb since there are many large climbs all around me here in Utah.

This LBS is not real close (about 30 miles away) so it is a little out of the way to them adjust small things but might get a better fit from the original purchase.
