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

Super Hot Ridley! Does the cable routing on the exterior of the bar "feel" present when clutching lower on the hoods?

Hot, but 4 "lightweight" decals on each wheel is a bit much for me (especially when compared to your Orbea)!

I'll take the Ridley with 12 fewer decals for $1000, Alex...

lol. Seriously, though, the Campy on the Ridley just looks perfect... 12 "Lightweight" decals seem like a lot to peel off, but that's what I'd do.

I'm not a fan of wheel decals (as per the Orbea) but the lightweights don't have any decals...the logo's are all painted on. I thought about scrubbing them off many times but I'd hate to accidentally wreck such an expensive wheel set...that and it just seems like a whole lot of work...maybe I can take a black jiffy to them...lol

Not actually a roadie, but I am. I'll probably throw some slicks on it for road use.
