Hey guys. Looking at a few bikes and wanted your opinions. I will be riding aggressively, possibly racing, but only because I would enjoy it. I currently mountain bike race on a 5" travel trailbike, so I don't need a good racebike to race, just something that would not be too much of a hinderance.

Bianchi 928 JensonUSA (http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/BI404C04-Bianchi+928+Crbn+Framebuild+Kit.aspx) $1600

2006 Litespeed Firenze $2200 LBS

2006 Giant TCR 2 LBS

Titus Modena from Colorado Cyclist $1834

Any opinions? All are similar build kits. Thanks for any help you can provide.

I have a Bianchi 928 {campy] and love it. Smooth ride, stiff enough for me, handles great. My only complaint is it is not Celeste.

Glad you like the Bianchi, because that is the one I bought. I am very sad they did not have celeste, but I will probably replace the bar tape with celeste. It will be ugly, but it is a Bianchi, it deserves some celeste.

Thanks,

Keith
