Alright help me choose a bike

Where I live there are only a few companies to choose from (no Cervelo =), and they are:

Specialized

Giant

Merida

Trek

Cannondale

Pinnarelo (I’d rather not though, the dealer is litterally crazy and very full of himself).

I’m looking for a bike with Ultegra at around 1600-1700 dollars.

The thing is I’m still growing, so a bike that fits me this year might be small two years from now.

Tom don’t start with the ‘one that fits’, I’m just looking for suggestions.

How expensive would it be to buy a bike from a dealer in a different country (say the US). Felt looks really nice, but there is no dealer here. Same goes for Cervelo (gerard?)

Since I am prohibited from telling you to buy the one that fits, then just buy the coolest looking one (see my signature here, it applies in this case…) :slight_smile:

Seriously though, this should be a very easy matter to decide based on your measurements.

Of those companies I’d say go for the Giant TCR Aero. Solid frame, should be ITU legal, and it’s got a great component spec for the money. (Plus it comes in a metalic blue or kick-ass red.)
