Howdy. I actually had my first try of a CR1 today. Test ride from a shop. I am currently riding a Orbea Onix. I cannnot believe how different they are. The cr1 is really stiff in a good way. Very light, comfortable, fantastic up hills and tracks in a straight line downhill. Would have to say is the best bike I have ridden. I am looking to buy next week.Have a real shortage of bikes in Australia at moment, but can get a frame. ( team issue) Buy it. Good Luck.:) :)

Well I went out and test rode a CR1 Pro today. The bike rides smoother than the Trek 5.2 I had before, smoother than any bike I have ridden before for that matter. Great power transfer and steers like a dream. Where I rode is flat so no climbing. Monday I will be ordering my 2006 Scott CR1 Pro..only thing is I am not sure if I want to upgrade the stock wheels...Any thoughts?

The bike I test rode had the Mavic Equippe, which felt good,, But I could only imagine what my Fulcrum 1`s will feel like . If I where you I would upgrade. Get my frame built on Wednesday. Team Issue. Cant wait. Good Luck.
