Full carbon road bike with 105 groupset for $899.00 with code.
I think this is excellent value for full carbon. I'm sorely tempted but do not have permission to add to my already large fleet of 3 bikes :(

Pedals?
If you have purchased a road bike with pedals, I would suggest you have bought a pretty rubbish bike.
These bikes a designed to be ridden with pedals that enable you to click your shoes to them.
Good bikes come without pedals as each rider matches the pedals and shoes to the system they like.
The pedals come down to personal preference. Just like a helmet.
It's an old running joke - JV always points out that these bikes don't come with pedals ;)
yet they come with seats? go figure???
It seems like you want to put this link
I think I have seen this price for several months. Not a bargain…
Yep, that looks like a fake price comparison…
I have bought a number of things from this retailer and been quite happy. $899 is about $100 dollars cheaper than I have seen it before. One of my riding friends actually owns this model. Typically, I have seen it on special for $999. I believe the retailer uses the RRP for all the individual components as the advertised RRP, so yes a little misleading but non the less $899 for this bike with this groupset is good value.
so yes a little misleading
Their statement "SAVE 50% = $1000" is against the law, since they do not normally sell at the full RRP…

I thought last posted was $999 with free shipping, so $40 less.
I have not seen this bike, but assuming the frame is ok, it looks like a great deal.
Shimano 105 is a great group set and is well worth the extra money over cheaper bikes.
The RRP would be for a big brand name with similar specs, so not really relevant, but still a good deal.
BNA forums mention the weight, looks like it has jumped to a more realistic number

Full carbon? Meh.
Incredibly cheap for a full 105 configuration..
Have had a Azurri Uno Sport for about 2 years now, is this a worthwhile upgrade from that? My bike currently is the low end of the shimano stuff and no carbon frames…
Yep, definitely worth upgrading from that to this. Make sure you get the size right, though.
Bugger, didnt realise it was going to expire so quick!!!!
