Giant had one just like that last year before tour de france. there was something like only 10 of them made.

you could build up just as good of a ride for half that.

I wouldn't spend that on a drumkit, let alone a bike.

Hell, I wouldn't spend that on 5 bikes.

I got to ride the super $$$ scott bike this summer. It was the only road bike i had ever ridden and i thought it sucked (the bike and the road part). The seat made me sore! Although i expected there to be allot more vibration with 80 PSI in the tires and no suspension, so i guess the carbon works well.

There would have been a lot more vibration if you had the tires properly inflated to 120psi. :rolleyes:
