Cool Decisions Decisions

Okay....trying to decide between three bikes:

1. Kuota KOM with Sram Force

2. Orbea Orca with new Ultegra (awesome wheels, can get Sram Force too)

3. Trek Madone 5.5 with Dura Ace (can also get Sram Force)

Like them all. Orca is best looking, Kuota is lightest and best deal, Trek is most comfortable.

Help?

Not meaning to be harsh but with the question you're asking, you're going to get opinions, not advice.

So, here's my advice...
  1. Don't buy a bike without riding it first.
  2. If those 3 bikes are the only options, then ride all 3 before making a decision.
  3. If you have other options then ride those options too.
Here's my opinion...

Find the closest bike shop that sells Cervelo and test ride an R3. I don't think that there is a better bike made, certainly not at that price range.

Good luck.
