"Better" is often simply a matter of personal preference, assuming one has been it at it long enough to develop preferences. Nobody is going to be able to tell you that a bike is objectively better than another and you probably know that. which is why it seems like baiting. spending a few afternoons test riding some new road bikes and getting a sense of how they feel based on your preferences will probably get you closer to a decision than soliciting opinions from folks that may have very different preferences than you, especially when it comes to fit (which is highly variable) and handling (which is highly subjective). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
