The Streetracer SR01 is a really great bike for those getting into the sport, since it offers much more than it's competitors in this price-point. The tubeset used on this bike, while made of alloy, uses the same engineering and shaping as it's higher-end BMC brethren, which are some of the pedigreed bikes on the market. It also comes with a carbon fork, adding to the comfort factor. The silver paint scheme also looks very sharp!
