I'm actually planning on maybe getting this bike spring '11 so Im curious to hear what others say. At 15.75lbs its the same price as your $2000.00 wheels.

i got the shill vibe as well. and it does not help that you show another bike that can be bought on that site.
so explain the CC scam deal.

I am getting a vision... a vision...
I see a dude in plaid shorts riding them at 8mph on the MUP. I see them locked up outside a Starbucks with a thin Walmart cable. After the first flat they spend the rest of time hanging from a hook. I see a kid making one into a fixie...
ooh... the vision is fading... it's gone.

bon_gabs 07-01-10 11:03 PM

I actually turn between madone and orbea,,madone coz Im a fan(lance),orbea because my friend is riding it,but upon checking the website they are wilier dealer as well so I choose cento to be different and Im impressed with bicycling magazine promotions as well,,you know what I dont have to explain with you guys,,as far as I know Im smiling everyride thats the most important,,

How is a buck... a single buck... considered to be a huge discount against a purchase price of anywhere from $3000 to $5000 for the frame?

It's comparable by exactly what's in my reply: The weight. The weight is not that far apart with the the motobecane at 15.75 and his 10K bike at 14.5. i think I'd choose to save the money.

Yep, that's what it's going to take pal to alleviate the intense scrutiny of this discerning crowd.

I would LOVE to have these dudes on my jury if I was innocent. But if I were guilty, not so much.

bon_gabs 07-02-10 09:23 AM

I never spent 10k,,hell noh,,,Im cheap,,

Seems like a shill to me...still linking the text to the website. Also, he resurrected an old thread on another forum and managed to mention twohubs 5 times in 3 posts. http://forums.roadbikereview.com/sho...ar#post2846017

I personally don't care if you're a shill. It's still a nice bike.

Ouch. Yeah, that's not good.

The only way you're going to re-instill confidence is to remove that link. Period. Anybody wants to know where you got it from, they'll ask.

Otherwise it smells like yesterday's mossbunker that's been in the sun too long.

This has to be the most porntastic duo I have ever seen.

All you haters complaining about shilling need to STFU and let me focus on the bikes instead.
