The obvious problem with that (the first Cube) is that it *isn't* a Cinelli Bootleg Hoy Hoy Rats.

Ok, to answer an earlier query re a Giant SCR... I am 5'10'' have 34 ins inside leg and ride a Giant TCR men's frame. It suits me, because the bike is a short, tight frame and I have a short upper body but very long legs, especially my thighs. I know this bike is an aquired taste and many people find it a harsh and uncomfortable ride. The TCR is sharp, and not that easy to handle, but I love it! It is all personal... If you are tall, you are better off getting a man's bike, as they cater for the longer legged with taller frames... Mind you the TCR has a slightly different geometry from the SCR... The TCR is a pure road racer, while the SCR is more better suitable to touring... and is a less harsh ride and easier to handle. Legless has an SCR and loves it... Gobi has indeed got a TCR...

I am thinking about getting myself this: brianrourke.co.uk

Any thoughts anyone?

I test rode a Specialized Tricross Sport Hann and it felt very comfy. I opted for a Cannondale CX bike in the end, but in hind sight I wished I went for the Tricross comp. specialized.com
