Good road bike at a good price?

[Big JD]

I looked at the peregrine before I bought my Soma, in the end it was a tad too pricey and I'm not the biggest fan of EBBs. Having said that I saw a friends new Kite the other day, that was a really well built bike!

I don't think this can be beat for the money though: http://www.marinbikes.com/2013/bike_specs.php?serialnum=1901&Cortina

Thankyou all for looking - I sourced an XL Yeti ARC X secondhand which will do me nicely :cheer2:

Is it this one (obviously not actually yours due to the size)?

No

OCDr to the rescue again. I am looking forward to picking up his carbon HB 29er down the track. i am the benefactor of his upgrades- its a perfect relationship.

Yep, we live far enough away that we don't have to live together but when we get together it is all out good times...

My HB ain't going anywhere - look elsewhere, besides, you are too old for a HT.

Its a perfect relationship except you are obviously stalking me-how did you know I was here in the road thread? This relationship can only succeed when there is trust and space for each of us to grow independently on RB. Youd think I was buying bikes off some other giant- like having an affair

Im too old for a HT. That hurts. Why cant I dream of weight wennie XC race bike strava loving heaven and hang with the cool kids.

 

[OCD'R]

I lurk all the road threads... didn't expect to see you here. Maybe why we share such an attraction (or am I reading too much into us?)

Take care of your back...

Thanks for your support Steve and don't worry, I'm having something made that will be very suitable for your visits.
