Giant TCR Alliance 2

Yesterday I bought myself a mean little light road machine. It’s certainly not the top of the line road bike but it’s not half bad at all. It’s fitted with a complete Shimano 105 set and is a mix of carbon/alloy compact frame. The top part is carbon while the bottom alloy.

I’m about to head out to pick up some nice Shimano RO99 shoes and I’ll be ready to roll and fall over at the lights because I’ve never ridden clips before.

    Nice bike. How do you find the drop bars?

    Cheers norbs. Not used to them yet but I’m not so sure I like them. I just ordered a pair of classic drops which felt a lot better in my hands. Should be in next week.

    Thank you Andrew. I’m really enjoying it so far. Spent way too much money on all the gear but I think it’s a good investment. :)
