Strengths:    Wheels, the Rolf wheels are strong and slick looking.
Weight, frame is super light for the price.
Full ultegra all around.
Threadless fork 1-1/8, first year for Trek.
Trick look!! NO CARBON, or TI.


Weaknesses:    Well frame is flexy after three HARD years.
Decals under clear coat not applied well.
Rolf wheels creek really bad.
Rolf skewers suck/stick.
Harsh ride. (not really a bad thing unless you are riding +++ miles)

Only a 4 because the bike is flexy as hell now.


Bottom Line:   
Very nice bike, raced/ridden/trained for 3 years now. I have changed out the seatpost and stem, because I get great Thomson deals. 100% Al frame.
Bike looks slick as hell, silver everywhere.
Bike is feather light, responds really well. Nice responsive geometry. I hav probably over 10,000 Km on this bike, and a lot of them racing.

Recently 4.2005 the bottom bracket flex has really grown. I am not sure if this is due to the frame, myself noticing it, or becoming a much stronger rider. It is probably a combonition of all three.
