Subject: RE: Best Value Beginner Bike - 2007I'm an owner of an S32, and here are the reasons that I think it is an excellent value for a beginner bike:
It's all set and ready to go as a tri bike. No need to accessorize; it's in the right geometry, the aerobars are set, and you'll get into aero real fast with it. So if you want to race THIS SEASON and feel very much like a triathlete while doing it, get an S32.
That having been said, I wish I had bought a road bike first myself. It turns out I'm doing way more group riding and touring than racing, and I think I would have preferred a roadie to a tri bike for my first bike. Oh well, an excuse for multiple bikes . . . |
