om... Any recomendations on cross bikes that won't hurt the wallet to much? I'm a cross newbie and am looking for a entry level bike equipped with an entry level price tag. Thanks, SK Try Redline, the Conquest and Conquest Pro are relatively inexpensive. http://www.redlinebicycles.com/index2.html It looks like they haven't updated their cyclocross bike page. -- Pete Rissler http://web1.greatbasin.net/~rissler/ -- rec.bicycles.off-road is moderated by volunteers.

Heres two:
LeMond Poprad - sweet 853 frame at bargain price - can vouch for it as I own one. Components are Sora, but 'cross components are consumables anyway. Another that caught my eye - Surly Crosscheck - frame about $395 - I've seen full Ultegra bike in Excel catalog for $1195 or so - you could put one together cheaper with 105, Sora, or used stuff.

If your looking for a cheap cross bike, I would definitely checkout
the Surly Cross Check :: http://www.surlybikes.com :: You can get it as a frameset for under $400 as was previously mentioned or as a complete bike. The beauty of the Cross Check is you can run gears or singlespeed. Another cheap alternative would be the On-One Il Pompino :: http://www.on-one.co.uk/products/ilpompino.shtml :: this bike is an incredible bike and very versatile. Either way you can't go wrong with one of these. Surly is a QBP company so warranty parts and the like are sent out quickly, while On-One is very in touch with their customers and go out of the way to make it a pleasant experience.
