While the article may not be the most neutral review of a bike I have ever read (as it was written by “Michigan’s largest triathlon and bike store”), there is still some very good information. We were once again asleep when this article came out, because while it doesn’t have a post date, it was clearly written before The Tour.
The first thing I thought when riding the F3SL was how nice the frame is. I own a road bike over twice the price of the F3SL- with exactly the …

Wired Magazine has gotten their hands on a decent variety of cyclo-cross bikes.  They review the high end Moots PsychloX, the Cannondale XTJ, the Specialized Tricross S-Works, and the Redline Conquest Pro.  And the winner is…the Moots PsychloX.  Of course, starting at $6000, you had better start saving.  From the article:
This titanium beauty backs up its looks with grace as the best-handling cyclo on all terrains. At 17.4 pounds, it’s very light, but the bottom bracket — where the pedal cranks fit through the frame — is stiff enough to …

The 2008 Trek 2.1 is a fast, and comfortable bike on a dependable, and stiff frame.  The 2.1 model has been renamed this year, from the former and popular Trek 2100 model (the majority of the Trek line has been renamed).
Make sure to read some of our other bike reviews, mostly to check out the comparable components, visual styles, and pricing, to see which bikes you should test drive at your local bike shop.  There are a lot of similarly priced bikes in the Trek 2.1 price range, and I …

The 2008 Trek 1.5 is formerly known as the Trek 1500. As mentioned in the Trek 1.2 review, Trek has updated, and reorganized many of their model numbers in 2008 from the thousand (1500 last year) series, to the x.x series (1.5 this year).
Once again, Trek doesn’t disappoint as the Trek 1.5 is a decent value, with a stiff, and light frame. The components have seen some significant changes, but as you’ll see, not all of them are for the better this year.

Specialized has pulled out all the stops with the latest in the line of Allez models for 2008. The Allez Triple really brings a lot to the table for an entry-level bike, as the components are quite upgraded (new 9-speed Sora for one…) on a pretty good frame. I didn’t expect it to be the miracle bike, but there were some surprising components for a low price of $800.

The 2008 Fastback Sport is the latest entry-level road bike from Schwinn Bikes. Schwinn has been around for over 110 years, so they’re definitely not new to the road bike (the company has changed a lot over the years, an d not always for good…). They haven’t been known to be on the cutting edge, and with this bike it isn’t any different, but what the Fastback Sport does offer is a pretty solid entry level bike.

The 2008 Trek 1.2 is the latest in Trek’s entry level road bikes. It’s a very affordable bike that falls below the $750 price category, and for many, it’s the first step to the world of high-performance road cycling. Trek has updated many of their model numbers in 2008 from the thousand (1000 last year) series, to the x.x series (1.2 this year). This model number change is not just cosmetic, as it does introduce a few key differences with the previous years Trek 1000.
