Well, as it was my birthday 3 weeks ago, and I've reached the point where I need a new bike (after using my good ol' Bianchi for a couple of years), I decided to look for a good bike that is equipped with Ultegra.
My price range is around 1000-1700. I'm not looking for a triathlon bike because most of my races/practices involve drafting. In the beginning I was actually leaning more toward a pair of Zipp wheels, but I decided that a good bike will help me more than a nice pair of wheels.
Soo I've done some checking around, and almost all of the companies have Ultegra bikes, but most of them are either too pricey for me or Ultegra/105 mix (which is not what I'm looking for).
So my question is this, is the Merida Magnesium 907 bike any good? Is it light, good handling, and most importantly - Price.
If anyone has any suggestions for good bikse in that range (1000-1700) let me know.
Thanks.
