Performance: The Carbon Fork is a high performance item that is normally only found on bikes starting at $900+.

Comfort: Dawes Lightning 2300 can be set up for a comfortable upright position. Want to get more serious? Buy some clip-on aero bars and you have a lower position and a competitive racing machine while still having the low gears you need to flatten most any hill or mountain pass and headwind. | Clip-on Aero Bar Pictures (not included, we suggest purchase at www.bikeisland.com)

Versatile: Attach your own rear rack to the Lightning 2300's rear eyelets and grab your groceries while saving on gas
