2008 cannondale rize or 2009 giant trancex 2

[crashes to much]

hi guys just wanting some feed back im a bit stuck on making a decision i like the price ($2995)and feel of the giant but the cannondale just feels brilliant(like in love brilliant) but the price tag was 4500 but saleman reckons he can do 4050
any feedback would be very much appreciated.

the guy who told you the price of the trance x2 is about $300 to much, on the giant website the rrp is $2695, that might make the decision a little easier.

Sounds like you want the cannondale. The Giant is a good bike. I checked the specs and the "dale" is slightly higher speced but not nessecarily $1500 worth {price difference} If the "dale feels" right and you can afford it then get it. If you settle you'll regret it later. If you do go on budget then your getting a great bike anyway so its win win

I would say, go for the rize, they are sick bikes!!

I'd go the cannondale myself,

Gotta say bike technology is pretty impressive these days, I reckon it's 6 of one, half dozen of another.
