Hey Guys, Sort of last minute. Was seeing if anyone is available to help check out a bike with me tonight?

http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/nv...795129983.html

Going to meet up at Park Royal at 7:30 PM. I am driving in from Richmond, can pick you up on the way.

Thanks!

Dat stem angle! Sorry I can't help check out the bike.

Just won an auction for a new matching Fizik Antares saddle for $65 :toot:

Just washed, cleaned drivetrain, and polished the CAAD10. :sweetjesus:

After procrastinating for the past few months I picked up a road bike, 2010 Specialized Secteur Comp :)

Thanks for the Bicycle Blue Book link, it helped in negotiating $200 of the asking price:fuckyea:

Now I need a bike fitment, shoes and cardio.....

Woo hoo! Congrats! :)

nice! welcome to the addiction...err club!

nice looking bike! congrats!:toot:

30km follow up review:

These tires are pretty awesome. Did some sprints, hill climbs and coffee shop posing. Lots of grip and very confidence inspiring on fast, downhill corners. The tires absorb a lot of road shock/vibration very well, much better than the Pro 3 yet smooth when you hammer down on the cranks.

Great tires. Will buy again. A++

In terms of "guy off the street" price - pretty standard, in according to most LBS rates but I've never seen him charge full price (unless somebody's being a douche.) Then there's the "Mike referred me" rate. Best to give John a call. He's opened tomorrow. :)

Cash talks and gets the best deals. :hotbaby:
