Giant TCR 0 Disc sram ...the orange bike
good ride, love the etap.... I will never go back to anything else. Bike 4 stars
Wheel experience, 2 stars
in 18 months and about 11,000 miles I had to have the rear wheel trued 3 times. Went through 4 tires probably because the wheel was out of true.
Carbon wheels delaminated though and getting giant to replay to an e-mail has proven impossible Customer Service 0 stars
Full confidence in the bike store guys. They have done great for me for many years

Of all the bikes I've had this is the best of them all!
I buy and sell bike on CL and eBay over a decade, particularly in my size. I've owned; classic steel, titanium, carbon fiber and aluminum road bikes. The Moots Vamoots is the best of them all!

Many to look at, but one to ride!
1975/76 Colnago Super, bought 1986, retired 2016; reincarnated, summer 2019 (for another 30 years, maybe it will, but I probably won't).

South, Central Pa rider
2006 Fuji Roubaix SL ...back in action!
2006 Fuji Roubaix SL, An aluminum frame with Dura-Ace 7800 components and Ultegra WH-6600-G wheels. 17.6lbs.
I had not ridden this since 2014 but have cycled once or twice a week this summer. One thing that annoyed me was my 10speed 7800 shifters wouldn't always down-shift - the inner paddle wouldn't always engage. I was afraid the Fuji was a loss and I needed something new. So I had nothing to loose in trying to revive the shifters and so with a can of WD-40 and a can of Tri-Flow lubricant, I cleaned the shifters and now they're working well.

Just got this one back to running order last week! Will change post, saddle, and pedals (installed for test ride) with the "proper" parts: Campy post, Fizik saddle, Campy SGR pedals or newer LOOK's.
Ride fast, Be safe!

Well, the perfect storm happened (temporary industry discount, car totals road bike and I was compensated) and I bought a nicer road bike than I deserve lol.
BMC Teammachine SLR02 Disc Two
Got it properly fit recently and it is a blast. I only fully appreciate it when I'm killing myself up steep hills. The bike is fast and makes me want to go as fast
