    Price Paid:  $5000.00 at LBS, Chicago

    Bike Setup:
    SRAM Force
    Ksyrium SL

    Summary:
    This bike is fantastic! The carbon is very comfortable, but is still quite stiff. I would rate the carbon as being similar to a Specialized Roubaix - does a great job of removing road chatter. The frame has carbon lugs, which seems to help with this. If you want the stiffest ride in the world, try a Jamis Xenith SL or Scott Addict LTD, etc.

    Strengths:
    Super Light
    AMAZING paint job - best on the market
    Very comfortable carbon setup
    Light, sleek fork

    Weaknesses:
    Noticeable flex, but not enough to affect crit racers, etc.

    2007

    Favorite Ride:
    long bays

    Summary:
    Awsum bike.handles so well .very stiff but also smooths the road out being a full carbon frame,nice to see carbon drop outs on the forks. I've ridden so many bikes but this is the first bike i would charge down hill on without worrying about flex.

    Strengths:
    stiff,yet comfy ride.
