"ENTRY-LEVEL ROAD:
Trek 1.5 $1100

Last year's winner returns to defend its crown. The price remains the same, but the shifters have been upgraded to Shimano Tiagra, which allow shifting from the drops and the hoods. (Sora shifters, spec'd on last years 1.5, may only be shifted from the hoods.)
Testers said:

It felt sturdy through the bottom bracket under climbing and accelerating pedaling forces.

Whether it's the power of economy of scale, or years of trickle-down, this bike performs way beyond its price point.

Very stable, confident descender."
