Best entry level road bike?



Best entry level road bike?

Bicycling magazine called the Trek 1000 "The best $700 bike we've ever ridden". I'd have to agree and you can get one cheapter than that, I paid $550 for mine and it has held up well for 3000+ miles. I'd get rid of the seat it comes with, it's junk, but the frame is solid and light and the Tiagra/Sora (depending on the year) components are good. It's a far cry from a carbon bike, but honestly, its a very, very good entry level bike. Good enough that I don't mind waiting longer to buy my next bike, it has done the job for me. I hear good things about Giant's OCR3 and Specialized Allez as well, but I've ridden them all and the Trek was my choice.
Specialized Allez
Giant OCR series
KHS Flite series
