Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

thoughts on Iron Horse Triumph Race?

i searched for info on the Iron Horse Triumph Race and didn't find much in these forums. i'm trying to decide between the Iron Horse Triumph Race (~$865 w/ coupon from Performance) and the Scattante CFR (~$1200 assuming Supergo posts a 20% off coupon soon). What do you guys think? Both are Ultegra equipped. The Scattante is an all carbon frame, but i'm not sure it's worth the extra $350.

Specs:

As talked about in another post, the CFR is in VERY limited supply right now, with no gaurantee that they will get any more in.

i'm in Seattle and the Supergo store has the CFR in stock. it's a matter of waiting for a 20% off sale at Supergo. Both bikes seem great. the Iron Horse Triumph Race just seemed like an incredible deal at $865.
