Does anyone have an opinion good or bad on Planet X Bikes. I'm getting new wheels for my Giant SCR but thinking about upgrading to a carbon frame, and Planet X look good, but I think I read somewhere that they can be heavy.

my brother has quintana roo-lucero and the PX is lighter!!
and then I got PX as my first bike.
and waiting for it to arrive, then it finaly arriving was a great moment [:D][:D]
then riding it [:D][:D][:D][:D][:D]
I turn 30 this summer and this special birthday comes with a special present if you ask me[8D]
I like the way that the frame they use on the 'super value' bike (which is the one I can afford) is exactly the same as the frame on the 'Pimp' or 'OMFG' spec bike, so I know it will stand the upgrades. Ooooohh, every Christmas and birthday will become so special as I add Dura-Ace bits.
Meantime I will make myself feel better by sticking some of their carbon forks onto my current bike.
This month's 220 magazine has a £2500-ish bike test, and although they don't test a P-X bike, they do mention them as being excellent value in the Conclusion section. For that money you'd get a full Dura-Ace P-X, upgrade to some really deep rims, and still have enough change to enter IMUK. Drool.
