Anyone here have a road bike?

hmm, it's kinda hard to know what exactly they have by just reading their name but i do know a decent amount about them. trek will always have the best price for the product. the 2100 and 2300 are good intermediate bikes. ZR 9000 aluminum is pretty much the best you can get plus carbon fork and rearstay make for a lighter and better power transfering bike. Felt are expensive! out of the three without a doubt the best one but also about 400-500 dollars more. the giant is kind of plain and the geometry of the bike is not my cup of tea. i have ridden a handful of giants and i never like my body position with them.

ok, if you have the money i would go for the Felt, if not go for the trek 2300.

i ride a Madone 5.9

lol, damn i went up like 30k points! thanks bro

no pedals.
some shimano ultegra SPD pedals will be great. matches the componentry of the 2300 too. i used them before i got my dura-ace pedals and i really liked them. wide platform, which i liked cuz it felt like i actually had something undernealth me. it was a mental thing for me. lightweight, kickass sealed bearing, you cant go wrong bro.
