Felt B14 (2010)

 Cervelo's juggernaut P2 moved out of the $2500 neighborhood, selling this year for $280. Felt's B14 nicely slotted into the P2's hand-me-down $2500 category; it's a great value for the money.

Felt B12 (2010)

 The Felt B12 is a worthy competitor to C'dale's Slice 4 and Cervelo's category killing P2, as well as the entry level Equinox TTX and Specialized Transition. But the closest rivel to the B12 isn't Cervelo, it's Felt's own B14.

Cervelo P2 (2010)

 Over the past decade Cervelo simplified cable routing, added a chain stay adjustment screw, then came the move to carbon. Since then it's been pretty clear sailing.

 This bike is a case study in: Not only power, not only handling, not only comfort, but superior aerodynamics is largely tied to choosing a bike that properly fits you.

Trek Equinox TTX 9.5 (2010)

 Reviewed is this mid-priced Trek through the prism of a "Have It Your Way" Project One purchase which is, in our view, the best way to buy any Trek at this price or above.

Slice 5

 It's Chrissie's bike, and Mirinda's, and it can be yours too for a paltry sum, as bikes go. Among those selling complete all-carbon tri bikes, Cannondale joins Felt and QR in the circa-$2000 club.

Felt B16 for 2010

 I'm always drawn to that place in a company's lineup where the company's bean counters wince as they look at how much money they're not making. Here's the bean-counter's nightmare.

Quintana Roo Seduza

 This 2010 Seduza is a singular example of this American company with a Mexican name's resurgence. It's a full-carbon monocoque chassis with all the sex features.

Giant’s Trinity Advanced SL2

 Scott, Specialized, and others are all making a new generation of timed race bike. Giant's Trinity Alliance seems to be the closest to making its version consumer ready.

Giant Trinity 0 for 2010

 In bikes and fine art, sometimes value is not appreciated contemporaneous with its introduction. So with the Trinity 0 (last year's Trinity 1), and most retailers who carry it won't grasp this model's importance.

Giant Trinity 1 for 2010

 Giant's Trinity 1 for 2010 was, in most respects, its Trinity 2 in 2009. It's an 09 Trinity 2 with a new color, and like last year's "2" it's a great frame with a forgettable spec.
