i think it all boils down to which you like the most and which one fits you. They're all good bikes, obviously, all kitted out to a similar standard and not much difference in the price. The spesh is a more relaxed/comfortable postiion than the other two, so it kinda depends what you want to use it for too..."Bite off more than you can chew, and chew like hell!!"0

You like bikes in team colours? I like the Liquigas one, but some like the Disco ones are awful like you said.0 -
I would have thought that the geometries of the 'Dale and the Roubaix would be quite different. The 'Dale a more aggressive racer and the Spesh a more upright sportive...0

Are you sure they used your bike? Their frames may look like yours and there's a possibility that some of them used similar frames, but I'm sure that there is no way they would use the low-end groupset and wheels specified in the review you pointed out.0 -

Aye, Liquigas use Campag rather than the japanese stuff.0 -
the frameset is the exact same, sorry my correction.
anyway cycling plus gave it 2nd place in the big of the year behind the focus.0
