I agree. They look great and are a great option at good price (for a Serotta) if the stock geo suits your needs, as it would for most. The HSG line should be a winner for them. Which raod model would you go for though? I am a Ti man but the others look awesome as well.

Is it just me or are the F3 forks among the most attractive carbon forks going around?

Should I go with the Ottrott in tri-geometry, the new CXIIti, or the new HSGtri????

Serotta now has 8 stock models, 9 custom models, and 5 special use models.

What a great dilemma to have!

Two comments,

On the HSG CX, why the high bottom bracket ?
Other wise the HSG CX would be a good all rounder.
Where is the long promised HSG/650 Bravo ?

i run a 6.5 on my road bikes.... it's my drop of choice. whats a 1/2 centimeter between friends?

That HSG carbon is real nice. I have to test ride one and compare it to my bike. The competition red or sapphire would work for me. If you guys are reading this, the bike pictured does a poor job of displaying the decals. I can hardly see them.

Could a level top-tube become an option somewhere along the line?

Go to a fitter first (one that you trust and is recommended by folks in the tri sport)> After that pick the model that works for you. If you do not need "custom" than you have more price point choices.

These appeal to me. But the sizing seems a bit peculiar to my untrained eyes. The 56 has the right TT length, but a short head tube relative to other race bikes I have had. The next size up looks to have a tt that is too long for me.

I am sure that the sizing is proper for most people, including myself, but I am a bit curious.

Also, I am not sure whether the listed top tube length is actual or virtual.

I think I would ride a 56 and can imagine one in my future.

It's very cool. An embarrassment of riches. I still can't figure out the niche for the steel HSG cross bike -- why would you choose that over a CIII with custom geometry, choice of paint, etc? It's a $200 difference? Not a choice I'll have to make this year. Maybe next year, though.

I'm surprised to not see a 56 tt in the geometry chart, I have always thought it was a very popular size. One can assume that Serotta did there homework when making this decision not to add this size as a option.
The line looks like it will do well for Serotta and the dealers that sell Serotta's.

I count 22 models, 14 with a custom geo option. Quite the line up.

I counted 22 originally. I mad a mistake in saying 21.
