I do like that road bike though :eek:
 
What's the keech in their blurb about a curved downtube to accommodate the suspension fork?
 
Don't tell me modern road bikes have tapered steerer forks too!!! Why? Won't that just make them heavier? :?

Yep been around for a wee while now, cannondale love em.
Stronger and lighter so they say.
The more I look at the Edge Ti the more I like it. If only gt made the Xizang with the same lines as that I would be down at the lbs monday morning.
 
I like it. :D
The xizang that is. Not so hot on the road bike.

Quite possibly the first GT that I have both liked and thought of owning. :shock:

Never has a triple triangle looked so good.

But would you like the look of it as much if they put the back wheel on the ground??? :LOL:
