My LBS has a Lemond Big Sky Road bike:
http://www.lemondbikes.com/2004_bikes/big_sky_s.shtml
....on sale for $599, being a 2004 close-out. The bike's 'relaxed' geometry
seems to fit me rather well, 55cm frame is 7mm taller than the Trek 7500FX
I'm riding now. When I stand to pedal it's much easier than on the Trek,
which I'm having some problems with now.
It's got Tiagra 8-speed and the LBS will swap out the suspension seat post
for a regular post n/c.
Sound like a good deal? (I don't see the current prices, but the tag says
retail is $799.
They also have the next model up, for $799,
http://www.lemondbikes.com/2004_bikes/big_sky_sl.shtml
....normally $1000, with Shimano 105, and some other improvements.
Is that enough of a price break where it's worth the extra $200 or would I
probably not notice a difference?
TIA,
-B
