Fezzari Foré CR2

Price Paid:  $1499.00 at Fezzari.com

Model Year:
2007

Favorite Ride:
Tour of the White Mountains

Summary:
I have taken the CR2 out on a number of 75 - 100 mile rides as well as shorter time trial rides of 20 - 30 miles. It is a fast, competent ride. If I had spend twice as much I may have noticed a difference but this what I needed and wanted at a price I was willing to pay.

The best part was buying from Fezzari. I know how that sounds but it really was a good experience. Their bike fit program is outstanding - this bike fits me better than any I have owned. For those who are concerned about buying online I would recommend considering Fezzari.

Strengths:
Custom Fit program,
Price
Customer service
Fast - full carbon

Weaknesses:
Steal is real, I was sorry to see my old steel Lemond be replaced but rust is real as well. The ride of the CR2 is on par with my old Zurich when the Zurich was new.

Model Year:

Bike Setup:
Carbon frame, Ultegra components

Summary:
I have had this bike for 6 months now and can't say enough about how nice it is. I had a Specialized Allez before this but wanted to upgrade as I've been doing a lot of miles every week. I wanted a bike with a carbon frame and nicer components. The Fezzari Fore CR2 is just perfect. I can't believe the difference in the ride between this bike and my aluminum one. I also test rode several others and this one is better than any of the others.

Strengths:
Light (I weighed it at 17.8 lbs), very smooth ride, great geometry (it's perfect for long rides), very solid feel.

Weaknesses:
None that I've found.
