Excellent bike for the money. At a 1000$, the dealer still has a good
profit margin. Shop around, dealers want to move 2006 models this time
of year.

Be sure the bike is properly sized for you.

Thank u Ted.So u said Fuji Rubaix is good bike.I don't know why, may
be because the name is japanese...I am a little unsecure...So Fuji is
at the same level of
Trek,Cannondale etc etc.?I like this red Fuji rubaix.U said this is
already time
for bike dealers to low the 20006 models price?Or I have i to wait a
little bit
longer?Thank u and have a great bike weekend.Maurice

IMHO, you get much more for your money with Fuji and Jamis. Someone has
to pay for Lance's bikes and all of the other mass marketing Trek does.

Trek bikes, as are most others, are made in China, Taiwan, etc. I think
the $4,000 Treks are USA made.
