Come check out in Ocean Beach near Dog Beach. Dawes Lightning 1500 with Carbon Fork Hand built advanced engineered and lightweight Altair 1 aluminum compact frame. Shimano Sora/2200 has 24 speeds, gives you some of the cutting edge tech of the top of the line Ultegra and Dura Ace without the budget biting price. (Shimano Sora parts are used on the Trek 1.2 which sells for $800+) Performance: The Carbon Fork is a high performance item that is normally only found on bikes starting at $900. The bonus clip-on Aero bars included allow a much faster and still comfortable riding position. Comfort: Dawes Lightning 1500 can be set up for a comfortable upright position. Want to get more serious? Turn a few bolts and get on the aero bars and you have a lower position and a competitive racing machine while still having the low gears you need to flatten most any hill or mountain pass and headwind. Versatile: Attach your own rear rack to the Lightning 1500's rear eyelets and grab your groceries while saving on gas More Pictures Then simply adjust the stem and seat height to your liking and ride happy. What does this bike compare to? Compare to the Trek 1.2 road bike with lower level Shimano parts and no clip-on aero bar. The Trek 1.2 sells for over $900 plus local taxes. Who should buy this bike? Get this bike if you want a bike for entry to sport level sprint triathlon racing and also want a more upright comfortable position for everyday cycling.
