    My new ride

    My new ride, a Quintana Roo CD0.1 triathlon bike. I will be using this for triathlons including an Ironman on 2011. I'll be getting some carbon wheels in the spring. Full carbon frame, fork, base bars, aero bars, crankset. One of the most aerodynamic bikes out there. I just need a stronger engine

    Very nice bike! I'm saving up for the Giant Defy one bike. Gonna train for a few triathlons before attempting the Ironman in 5 yrs. How much did it cost?

    best time to buy bikes is during fall and beginning of winter. the 2011's are coming out and shops are trying to get rid of 2010's. I got mine for only $2700 (without saddle and pedals). Add another $400 for those. MSRP was $4300. It also cost me $200 to get a professional fit and the bike was setup to my measurements.

    Im planning to upgrade to electronic shifting next year when the prices go down on the Di2, but carbon wheels are my next priority.

    I wanted to pickup a Scott PLasma or a Felt B16. Both have white, green, and carbon.

    that's what I said. I'd rather have my car stolen than my bike. I told my wife that this bike is not staying in the garage. it'll be inside the house where it's warm this winter.
