Strengths: Looks...sexiest bike available.
StiffnessWeaknesses: Obviously, price.Bottom Line: The best way to describe this bike is deceiving. The first ride was so-so and felt slower than my alum cervelo. Took a few rides to get the fit just right. Then it just got faster and faster. Feel that I am a much faster rider, but now afraid that it is all bike and not me. Not quite as light and smooth as I would have thought, but definately stiff. Went with Ultegra Di2, of which I'm not a huge fan of...yet.

Strengths: Fit and Finish
Molded Frame-
Fast- Sprints Well, no flex
Internal Cable Routing
Matte Carbon
HeadsetWeaknesses: 5K for F/FBottom Line: I hate this bike. I am totally ruined at this point. After riding this, I can never go back to my Scott Addicts, or Look 585. I guess after riding this, the holy grail of bikes the benchmark has been set. So maybe this is just first date ipmressions and weaknesses will manifest in time. First Ride Impressions; 20 miles (just to get my legs back). This bike is fast and compliant. I'm really impressed with how comfortable this bike is as well. It sprints with ease for a 15.6 lb steed. (my Addict was 13.5 lbs), is smooth, comfortable. I cant say enough on how nice the fit an finish is. Really nice built quality. I mean really nice. But what else do you expect for 10k? Yes you can spend a lot less and have a great ride. For copmarison, I rode a Willier Cento 1 for 40 miles last year at interbike. It was super nice. The Scott Addicts are really really stiff, can be built sub 14lbs with ease, the Look 585 are a good choice for pro peleton equipment with some character with the lugged classic frame. Overall, first 20 mile ride was spectacular.
Favorite Ride: Fast one
