>>1213532I have to wonder how you bought a bike at an LBS and managed to get something that didn't fit. Was your LBS truly that incompetent, or did you work hard to buy the wrong bike?
>>1213819The way you framed your question begs whether you know what you're even asking for. Any performance rider would be more specific about the kind of performance they want. Also, the brand name doesn't matter much especially when the real names behind the frame are Maxway, Kinesis, Merida, and Giant, and in some cases are literally interchangeable.
It's a very competitive price point among the dentists and higher performers. It's a little on the high side, for say, a CAAD ultegra with another wheelset, but not quite Pinarelo Dogma territory.
