Hi there. Any women out there on a Scott Contessa? I checked out a Speedster in the shop today and it looked pretty sweet to me. I'm not in the market for a tri-bike, so I'd be glad to hear some comments about this ride.

Thanks! :)

The Contessa is a HOT bike. I dig it's paint job, and I'm not the pink kinda guy. It's really the Scott Plasma with a cool paint job. The Plasma is a good bike and several people on the board ride one.

Life is short. Play hard and get dirty doing it.

I have a Speedster S20, and I love it. And if I had me a girlfriend, I would buy her a Contessa, in pink of course.
Back to the Scott line.... I think they cheaped out on the components this year a tad. When I got my Speedster 2 years ago, it came with 105 all around and a full carbon fork for under $1k, pretty good for my first road bike. Plus in the roadie scene, you will be one of the very few on a Scott.

I like it so much, my first tri bike will be the Plasma (if it fits) I think.

Cool! I am really thinking this bike is the one. And the price (thanks to my shop's annual summer sale) is definitely right!
