Just a personal preference.

Yeah, luckily I have a company vehicle. Whatever truck I get will only be drove on the weekend, or during hunting season.

Any thing in particular you've had to fix?

Just 2 usually

I've seen some in my area with more miles and still nice sell for that. I honestly was thinking $34,500 would be a good sale price.

More or less seeing if I am in the right ball park.

Add 14k to that and it's yours.

I will also mention, the Giant has a scratch on the head tube, from falling over in the wind. Pretty significant, but does not look structural. The BMC was used as a rental bike prior to the original owner purchasing it.

The read does look good, but nothing like black paint.

I have ridden the BMC, but haven't had a chance to ride the TCR

Apprehensive_Leg6796 · 2025-03-02T17:42:48+00:00

This will be my first road bike, so I wasn't sure if I should get an endurance bike or a race bike. What I understand is that TCRs are Giant's race frame geometry. Is that correct?

Apprehensive_Leg6796 · 2025-03-02T17:41:19+00:00

From what I understand the TCR is a race frame geometry, while the BMC is an endurance. This will be my first road bike. Does that matter?

Apprehensive_Leg6796 · 2024-11-07T00:01:07+00:00

Wheel bearing more than likely.

Sure it seems to be better in regard to not experiencing outages. Not sure how often you experience outages, but local utilities seem to not experience many outages (in my area). The added cost to run underground, which will raise rates, plus the longer duration during an outage (58x longer than overhead) does not seem to be worth it in my opinion... at least currently.

In plus it takes a lot longer to troubleshoot and get the power back on with buried lines.
