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

Looks like they will only be 1x11 so my guess is Crit bike. I like the Black with blue fork.

very sexy for AL, they are doing some cool stuff with hydroforming these days, making AL even more appealing.

I applaud SRAM for realizing how awful they are at front derailleurs and cutting their losses.

Looks like a Langster. My Allez Comp looks much better. Yes matte black and red is the best color combo in the world.
