I cant seem to find a weight listed anywhere for this frame or forks, or complete bike. anyone got any info, or feedback if these are any good, with all this offset 'SHIFT' frame novelty etc. :?:

Its QRoo's top of the line tri bike, so shouldnt be shabby, but I tend to gravitate towards hillier courses so weight is an issue too, although i know few Tri bikes are 'light' compared to good road bikes.

    I wouldn't buy a Quintana Roo as they are distributed by American Bike Group (ABG)

    Just google them and their warranty service and beware!

    (I own a Quintana Roo Seduza, it's ok. Nowt special, would look at the new Boardman IMO)

    Ditto... I would boycott any ABG products ( Litespeed / merlin / Quintana Roo) (any others) bsaed on the way they handled Infopete's warranty issue. - see http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12744969

    Its time ABG realise their actions have consequences
  • i'll take that onboard ta.
    i like green and yellow frames so if anyone doesnt hate QRoo i'd still like to know.
