    Price Paid:  $3880.00 at fezzari.com

    Model Year:
    2007

    Bike Setup:
    Full Dura Ace, Carbon frame, carbon bars

    Summary:
    I was a little nervous about buying something sight-unseen over the internet. Especially something that is $4,000. But I compared dozens of different bikes and found that component for component that there was no better value on the market. I also figured that I had a 30-day moneyback guarantee in case I didn't like it, so what was the risk. So I took the plunge.

    To say the bike exceeded my expectations is an understatement. It's a great value, but it's much more than that. I'm convinced it's the best quality, best performing bike on the market. The finish is beautiful and meticulous.

    The custom setup that Fezzari did was dead on. I've taken the bike on 3 century rides and many, many other rides since then. You don't appreciate the engineering and feel of this bike fully until you've been on it for a long ride. It's so smooth and efficient. This bike is definitely worth the money and is better than the Madone that my friend bought and paid several thousand more for. He's kicking himself.

    Strengths:
    Ride characteristics. It's smooth and efficient. There's no lateral flex and the road chatter is gone. The best riding bike I've ever been on.

    Weaknesses:
    None

    Similar Products Used:
    Trek Madone, Guru Geneo RS4, and several others.

    Price Paid:  $3900.00 at fezzari.com

    Model Year:
    2007

    Favorite Ride:
    Many

    Bike Setup:
    Full Dura-Ace.

    Summary:
    I've owned this bike now since last summer. I absolutely love it. The frame is the perfect blend between stiffness and chatter reduction. I have a Merlin titanium and a Kestrel carbon bike. Both are great bikes. But this one is better. They all are loaded with Dura-Ace, but the ride on the CR5 is just better. I've been able to cut my personal best times on my favorite rides on the Fezzari.

    Strengths:
    No question - ride. It's responsive and durable. It's dialed in for me.

    Weaknesses:
    None so far.

    Similar Products Used:
