There must be something in the air, for new bikes... I went out this morning to have a "look" at bikes, and found a bike that grabbed my interest...
A Lapierre Pro Race 229 hardtail, with Rockshox XC-30 lockout forks, Shimano Deore shifters with SLX derailleurs. It felt pretty light compared to the other bikes on display, and even worse, it was marked at half price!
I'll be taking it out to get dirty later this afternoon, after I've finished driving the kids everywhere!
