105 is Shimano's workhorse grouppo. It's on par with SRAM Apex/Rival. It's heavier, but bulletproof. If you are deciding between Force and 105 (both of which are within your budget) do not hesitate: go Force. Source: I have owned and ridden on pretty much every grouppo offered by Shimano and SRAM (never Campy though... go figure). |
ill echo those comments

^ Living in FL, this makes me really jealous! I miss real dirt, any fire roads here are just too sandy
