my first road bike

Zipp cranks with SPDs. That screams "I'm a mountain biker kiss my ass bitches."
Definite cool ride you got there. I love the shadowed Giant in the top tube.

haha yes i am a DH rider, but i use flats for everything else. BMX, daul slalom and XC. only ride clipped in on the road bike.
im surprised you can see the giant logo shadowed in on the top tube. i think it looks pretty slick.
ill look into a pair of used wheels instead of new, but i can get cost thru shops so i might be better off new? idk ill look around first tho.
zipp cranks i got for 170 bucks brand new so im stoked on that. i was in the market for a 53/39t crankset and just happen to stumble on that deal.
I say get some real road pedals and shoes before you drop too much coin on a wheelset.
And seconded the Dura Ace scandium/tubeless wheelset, I'm a big fan of mine.

NICE! My first road bike was a Giant OCR 1 and I rode the crap outta that thing! Have fun.
He's talking dedicated road pedals a la SPD-SL.
Shimano's wide-platform road pedals are awesome. I'm not sure whether if they've trickled down to 105 yet or not, but they'd do the trick. If not, Ultegra's get my vote.
