GT EDGE CX

[lfo]

It's not a EDGE, the EDGE was only available as steel (fillet brazed) or titanium frame, your linked bike looks like a old FORCE (alloy) .

Re: GT Edge 853 CX

I picked up a custom GT Edge 853 CX bike. Although it's far too small for me, I can't seem to let it go - secondary to it's sheer beauty!

That said, it does delivery a dynamic ride. I find it to be both nimble and comfortable.

Bottom line, I absolutely marvel at it's exceptional craftsmanship.

Not mine, but these don't come along very often and they are sweet.

Re:

I was gonna make a move on that frameset cuz mine is too small for me.

But I just bought a Merlin Ti frameset and so, my girl would hurt me.

That's not the case. I owned an alloy Edge road frame before I purchased my Excel tubed steel one because the alloy was too small. If you check out the catalog on here you will see they offered the bike in 6061, steel (Excel, True Temper and 853 depending on the year) and Ti.

OK you're right, but i think you must agree the steel 853 fillet-brazed Edge looks ten times better than the alloy Edge. :shock:
