They are on the Giant AUS website now. The OCR range has been shifted downwards in the range ie an OCR1 is spec'd like a OCR2 & so on .

If you are interested in a top class bikes on a 2000$ budget see if you can find one of the new Limited Edition T-Mobile Alliance bikes being brought into Oz to coincide with TDF 2007.

looks like sora has gone nine speed. I wonder if thats a new shifter or the old tiagras.It all seems like another way to get your money with these yearly so called upgrades. Riding bikes was a lot simpler 20 years ago.

You can tell the 08's are coming when shops clear out bikes like the TCR Alliance2 for $1500.
