CRX 0 Disc, we have a little time to wait, September!!

Price, RRP well over $K2, but LBS says we should be able to get for a street price of $1999.

2007 models now on Giant AUS web page: http://www.giant-bicycles.com/au/03...030.000.000.asp

Giant says CRX 0 Disc will be "sooner" than September, I will post a date later.

Seems overpriced. Essentially 105 groupo with Ultegra RD to add flash (don't you hate it when they do that??). Measly EA30 bar/stem - these are entry level bits, even EA50 can be had for very little, Giant are a bunch of cheap skates.

Fair enough, the price seems steep, $2k for that bike. Could get a 06 OCR Comp by topping alittle.

Seen today, a 2007 Giant OCR3W-650c 2XS size, a very pretty bike any young girl will be proud to own.

See the Giant USA page for 2XS geometry: http://www.giant-bicycle.com/us/030...asp?model=11332 This bike is on display at Runners World West Perth.

Just looked at that Giant OCR3W 2XS at Runners World (flying visit). Nice bike! However, I will stick with my Felt. Will try it out if time tomorrow to compare. I like the cyclocross levers on my Felt.

Had a look at Giant Upland in XS (new size) last week, and am going to order one as soon as I have sold the Apollo. Great to see that Giant are eventually catering for us small ladies.

I used to have a Sedona in XS, but because of the suspension it is a big bike.

A few interesting things going on there!

OCR C3 - Carbon + Tiagra

No more OCR1, meaning that if you want Ultegra or better then you have to get a carbon frame.
