Did you order the wheel decals to match?  Or did the LBS do that for you?

I have a T1.4 that I LOVE.  Wish I had the money to upgrade to the Triad, they look so nice!  That bike looks awesome and I love the decals

I love those bikes.  Do they still give you an hour in the windtunnel if you buy one?

I like the customized pine cone bottle cage. Nice.

Blue (I think) did that...
Rides well.
I have tried P2, P3, Felt.
This bike seems to fit better.
The P3 was niiice too.
The Felt seemed "fastest" (perhaps a wheels?) but was not a good fit.
The stearing is a bit more sensitive with the Blue...
It is interesting just how different the bikes feel!

This bike is a bit pricey...right now haven't really gotten to apples vs apples (and also have a interest in quintana roo CD0.1...in Ultegra that is a deal if you can handle the greeeeen paint)

I think so...need to confirm. I am in Ga. so that would be an easy ride and interesting process!

You don't use pine cones for nutrition? Lots 'o Omega3's (is a little "scratchy" the next day...)

good fiber though.  keep your eye out for porta-pottys and public bathrooms on your riding route!

That is a crazy paint scheme.  I would love to see one in person to see if I like it.

Haven't made "the call" yet...nor has final price been quoted...
You are in the right range. Maybe a little lower?
