Rate my new bike!?

Hi, I'm gonna buy this bike next week

Hi(c)ker 2000 Alu (http://www.descheemaeker.be/details.asp?...

I would like to know how you like it.

Notice:
- I know it isn't the best you can get, i'm a beginner so i start off with an "cheap" bike
- I will use clickpedals later, i'm not used to it and it would be dangerous where i live to stop and fall on the street.

I'd say that's a really good find for an entry road bike. How much is it, is there specs anywhere?

I also notice the campag shifters, they look very good on the bike and I like the colour scheme.

edit- found the specs - http://www.descheemaeker.be/details.asp?...

It looks nice- alloy frame, deep rimmed wheels and ultra thin tyres which is what you want on a road bike- but I can't read Dutch so I don't know what the full specifications are. For a beginner it'll be a good introduction to road cycling.

Very nice, looks good and fast, I would change the pedals for one of those with the clips like Time or Look

Besides that everything else looks very nice.

It's a nice Taiwanese frame with good components (Campy) and wheels. The price seems pretty good too. All in all, looks like a great moderately priced bike.

Your link does not work
But enjoy your cycling whichever bike you get.
edit: It looks nice. ( I love Yellow ! ! ! ), but put some proper pedals on it ! !

Looks nice to me. Just get out and ride !

good choice for a beginner
