It is quite nice. Possibly a touch out of my price range @ $1200, although I think it would fit me well.
I was searching online and found that the best I could do for a new bike was a Felt tri-bike @ $1199. Argh, this is frustrating. I was hoping to be set up with bike/pedals/shoes for $1200.
This one's a sweetie though. Are there clipless pedals on this? Would you include pedals?

Hi. Yes! I just upgraded my pedals and shoes. I can definitely throw in the pedals and shoes too if they will fit you. They are nice Sidi T1 shoes in size 38. I wear a 6.5 - 7 in regular shoes. They are still in good shape. I only upgraded because I found a really good deal on a Shimano shoe/pedal combo. The pedals are the Look 247 Limited Race.

5'1". I bought this size because it's the smallest they made. I still had to get it modified with a different seat post to get the seat low enough for me. My inseam is about 29". Depending on your proportions, it should have enough leeway to fit someone a few inches taller.

Why are you selling it?  Just curious.  I've been thinking about a tri bike.  I'm 5'1", don't know my inseam. I wonder if this bike would be too big for me??

Janelle, go to a tri shop. Tri bikes fit differently than road bikes (as you now know).

I got a 49 so it may or may not work for you.

I know that I couldn't get anything bigger than a 48cm- that would be too big.  And yes- I need to get my butt to a tri shop to see what bikes fit me the best!

Wow a 49?  Guess Big Red was too big for ya.  I bet you're going to love your new bike because it'll fit so much better.

Nice bike! I could almost take it off your hands if I sold my Felt! I'm 5'6", though...Is that too tall?

Hi. I've been on vacation... sorry for not replying to the posts. I'm selling the bike because I fell in love with a carbon fiber road bike (Orbea). I need to sell the QR to pay off the AmEx bill :-(

I think it would be perfect for someone 5'1", but too small for someone 5'6". Let me know what you think... Beth
