My LBS is selling the above bike for £1700. Just wondering if anyone has one and what they are like?

    Loads of reviews on here and all over the interwebs on the CR1. The verdict is that it's a solid yet comfortable bike that's perfect for those that want to hammer out the miles in a more comfortable position. Think more slightly more aggressive and stiffer Roubaix.

    I have had the CR1 Team for 3 years now (since the first year of the latest redesign) and absolutely love it. Have upgraded everything bar the frame and seatpost and it still feels fantastic. I ride mainly social, club and sportives - no racing - and it excels at this sort of riding

    I would buy another in a heartbeat.

    So you actually have a totally different bike with a CR1 frame :D
    Yellow is the new Black.

    Have you bought it yet? If not get down there and buy before anyone else does, I bought last years model in the sale, absolute bargain, Scott are going with the same frame for 2013 without any changes, same frame was used in this years Paris-roubaix, so they can't be bad, as you can probably tell, I love mine, comfortable but fast, not too upright either( I'm an oldie by the way, but still find it great to ride) let us know if you take the plunge...
