Si, por supuesto. Pero mentalízate de que te vas a pegar unas cuantas ostias al principio. Es ley de vida. Por ahí tengo los Shimano XT que venían con mi bici, y que cambié por los Crank Brothers. Te los vendo baratos...

Eso si, por mucho que tu tendero te prometa, vete empapando de mecánica de la bici, sobre todo en lo referente a mantenimiento y demás. Una bici bien cuidada y ajustada te puede durar muchos años sin darte un solo problema.
A todo esto... Lleváis pedales automáticos?
Osti, hoy he visto una tienda de Cube, en Lleida, y son realmente guapas y bien hechas. Es para pensárselo, eh?
También las venden en CRC.
Cuales son? Igual me interesan, aunque no de inmediato. Con calas?
Pues efectivamente, tras un duro mano a mano con la Cannondale SL2, la Lapierre se viene con papá
Mañana me la entregan...

Me acabo de dar cuenta de una cosa: los cables del cambio se cruzan por debajo del tubo:
Una rápida búsqueda por google me dice que no es algo que tenga importancia, pero a mí me mosquea Qué os parece?
Edito: parece ser que no es infrecuente, y algunas marcas lo usan para hacer que el recorrido de los cables sea más suave y natural.
A mí me parecía una chapuza de la tienda pero parece ser que no

"Why do my cables cross under the downtube?"
We're showing our age here. This was a custom feature that most high-end bike builders did back in the 1970's and 1980's on bikes with bar-end style shifters. The reason for it was to protect the paint job. If the shift cables are routed to the opposite side of the bike than they are mounted (ie. the left shifter cable routed to the right side of the bike and visa versa) then the cable housing does not rub on the head tube. The cables need to cross back over underneath the down tube in order to be attached to the appropriate derailleur. We see bikes all the time with the paint rubbed off where the cables have been rubbing on the frame as the handle bars are turned.
This practice of crossing the cables was carried through to some of the models we make with the new Ergo and STI integrated shifters as they have the same problem of the housing rubbing off the paint. Our local customers never ask about it as we explain those type of things as they are looking at bikes on the shop floor. It wasn't until we started shipping a lot of bikes to out of state customers that we realized some folks may think we crossed the cables by accident. I've even had young mechanics at other shops tell Rodriguez customers that we messed up on their cable routing (that really surprises me as it was customary at every high-enbd bike shop I've ever been in).
Well, now you know that there is a method to our madness, and if your cables are crossed, it was done intentionally. It protects the paint job and makes your shifting even smoother since the cable routing has less tight bends in it. Not every model we make gets the cable crossed, so don't worry if your cables are not crossed. On travel bikes, and a few other models we make, the 'cross trick' doesn't work as well so we don't use it.
"Why do my cables cross under the downtube?"
With the shift cables crossed, the shift housing does not rub the paint and the housings 'sweep' a smoother route.
The standard routing pushes the cables against the head tube. As the bike is ridden, the cables wear the paint off of the frame.
Hay mucho escrito sobre el por qué de cruzar los cables cuando estos van por debajo del tubo diagonal, en lugar de pasar por el tubo horizontal."Criss-Cross" Cables
Most bicycles with handlebar-mounted shifters run the rear cable on the right, the front on the left. This causes some awkwardness in routing the length of housing from the shift lever to the frame stops. Due to the need to allow these housings to be long enough to permit the bars to be turned all the way back and forth, the housings often wind up making a reverse bend--for instance, the rear will go from the shifter, which is on the right, swing forward and cross over past the centerline of the bicycle, then back over to the right side of the top tube, before heading down the down tube. These extra bends increase friction, and the fairly forcible contact between the housing and the side of the top tube can damage the finish. A neat solution to this is to run the cables "criss-cross" style: The rear runs from the lever, (on the right) around the top tube, and to the cable stop on the left side of the downtube! The front cable crosses over similarly from the left side of the handlebar to the right side of the down tube.
The bare cables then cross one another under the middle of the downtube, making an "X". The cables may touch where they cross, but they will do so very lightly, since they are both straight...the tiny bit of friction at this crossing is more than offset by the reduction in friction in the smoother-flowing cable housings.
