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

Better Components Trek 2.1 compact or Pilot 2.1?

Ok; I've done some searches and looked for myself over the internet. So how about some opinions which I know I can find here. Which bike has better components the Trek 2.1 compact or the Trek Pilot 2.1?

Thx

trek pilot but the gometry is different. i liked more the geometry of the 2.1 but for a little bit more you can get the 2.3 which has almost the same components.

Ok; I've found a new 07 Trek Pilot 2.1 on closeout for less than the Trek 08 2.1 compact. It rides good; is this pretty much the best I can do with a price3 range of less than $1500?
