Strengths: Sprints and climbs very well.Weaknesses: A bit twitchey on the bumps due to the short rear end. I had the tail switch out a few times under power. I have also expierenced speed wobble as I have on my Merlin Extra Light. This could be from the large frame size I ride of 61Bottom Line: Very fast, great out of the saddle power,

Strengths: Fast geometry due to the short chainstay. Very stiff and efficient but very forgiving. Lifetime warranty.Weaknesses: A little bit pricy specially the 2003 because you have to buy a complete bike. But it's all worth the $$$. I also get paranoid when I leave it when we take a break cause I'm afraid someone will steal it.Bottom Line: This is really the ultimate bike! Great acceleration, superb riding characteristics, very efficient. I've tried them all (OCLV carbon, steel, al, al/carbon, ti, metal matrix, berylium) and this is the best. Not the lightest but is certainly the fastest.
Favorite Ride: Honey Springs
