SRAM Rival

I recently upgraded to SRAM Rival from Ultegra nine-speed, and at this point the only thing original on the frame is the fork (soon to be replaced), so I figured I should update my Velospace. I love this bike - by far my favorite ride. I commute on it daily in warm and dry weather (I have a full-fendered commuter for inclement times), and race it whenever I get the chance. The full build weight is a little over 19 lbs, which works for me, since I'm not a weight weenie. Since switching to SRAM, I'm totally sold. I don't want another Shimano-equipped bike (though I would take Campagnolo).

Sold this frame in March of 2009 after replacing it with a Cannondale CAAD8. Swapped all components over to new frame.

i see what you mean

...about the crit bars and the shimano hoods. it looks like a rough transition - almost a 90degree angle. that can't be comfortable...
