Roadbikereview.com Rated 5 out of 5 Stars. Raves "it's a winner...smooth and responsive...a great bike...":
"…without question a good deal...it’s a winner. The frame is well built with nice lines, clean welds and a beautiful finish. The bike rides well. It is smooth and comfortable and tracks well on any kind of pavement and even dirt or gravel. Handling is crisp and predictable; it can be pushed to descend at break-neck speeds...a good bike for long distance rides...Taller head tube is advantageous for most applications…Frame is smooth and responsive...Dropouts are stiff…indeed a great bike in its own right…a tremendous value." Same frame as top level Dura Ace Team Edition tested Here.

What size should I order?

Sizing Tip: These Le Champion Titanium bikes have a semi-sloping top tube / semi-compact geometry similar to the Trek Pilot or Specialized Roubaix which have higher headtubes for a more upright position with a bit lower standover height.
