...get the 2013 United KL40 Pro? http://www.danscomp.com/102182.php

I was going to build up a custom and order everything from danscomp but that's $600 more than this bike. Is there any advantage of building your own bike that I'm missing? It seems to me I'd be saving a ton of money and the only disadvantage is that I don't get to pick my own exact parts/colors.

I personally don't like stock bikes, they don't put all the best stuff on them. But the united is higher end so you should be fine with it. I can't ride completes because there's specific things I like.

Building your own bike basically just means aftermarket parts and that united looks good but if you want to spend a little more and get a sunday like http://www.danscomp.com/products-BIKES/102219/2013_Sunday_Ross_Pro_Bike.html or the young pro.. They have pretty good parts on them.

Two of my friends have Sundays and I really don't like them. The United has full chromoly frame, fork, and bars. It has double wall rims and 48 spline cranks, and geometry that I like. How could I go wrong with it?

Your basically spending $730 for a bike with like all stock parts except for the grip,pedals, and tires. I would spend $70 more and just get the wifi, almost full custom and it's better than the united
