Strengths:    Plush yet lots of power. Great for climbing

Weaknesses:    Truvativ BB made a creaking noise for about 500 klms but then it just went away?!?!

Bottom Line:   
Great bike for getting on and just going. If I'm out for one, two, three or four plus hours the next day I feel great.

Strengths:    Full carbon frame provides a stiff responsive frame with a soft ride. SRAM Rival group, I am pretty sure I will stick with SRAM from now on out but time will tell depending on the overall duribility, but I am loving the double tap.

Weaknesses:    Weight of the Mavic Aksium wheels. Though the wheels are bomb proof so far. I have over 1000miles on them and not even slightly out of true.

Bottom Line:   
Awsome bike. I've riden aluminum and aluminum with carbon stays. This bike is by far the most comfortable bike I have ever ridden. Took me 4 months to purchase a new bike. The combination of the compact design and componets sold me on a Giant. The shop I bought the bike from was awsome in helping me find the right bike and size it properly. The bike is a responsive as aluminum with out the harsh ride. The relaxed geo really helps ease the road on the long rides.
