How much of a discount should you expect from a change over in model years (07 vs 06?) What about an '05? The reason I ask - I'm looking for a road bike in the $1K range. I'm open to brands, but the components should be Shimano 105 or better. Here are some I'm looking at:
Trek 1500
Giant OCR 1
Felt F85
If I go up to the $13-1400 range, I can start looking at:
Cannondale Synapse Alloy 2
Trek Pilot 2.1
Trek 2100
But....I'd like to keep it around $1K, if possible. There is an '05 Specialized Roubaix triple (don't know which model, but it's 105 or better) for 1150 at a nearby LBS. Is that a really good deal, or should there be a better price for an '05?
