Strengths: The shimano 105 and Ultegra components, comfortable upright riding position, carbon seatpost, WTB seat, and paint job.Weaknesses: I've had the bike serviced twice with two different shops and they can't seem to solve the chain from falling off the cranks when shifting to top gear. It might be the Truvativ crank but only does it occasionally. The front Aero wheel creaks due to my 230lb butt. The brakes do well for me but will do much better for a lighter person.Bottom Line: I've owned it for a couple of years but hadn't taken road cycling serious. I started out a BMX'er, mtn biker, and now added road cycling. This is a comfortable change from chromoly and aluminum. The carbon is strong if it holds my 230lb butt. I like climbing and torquing it up the hills/mountains. So far so good. The bike is holding up well with approx. 1000 miles.
Favorite Ride: Anywhere I don't choke on a hill
Price Paid:
$1200.00
Purchased At: Fast Bicycles in San
Similar Products Used: Can't remember the road bike I had 20 years ago but it was French, Focus?
Bike Setup: Stock but soon to upgrade wheels, tires, brake pads, and crank to Ultegra.

Strengths: Smooth ride and a terrific frame for under $2k
It looks cool too!Weaknesses: none, nada, zero.... great bikeBottom Line: I have been a MTB'r for 15 years and this is my first road bike. To sum it up I am very impressed with this bike. It is a smooth enjoyable ride that begs to be rode.
The 105 components are dependable and complient without breaking the budget. The Carbon frame makes for a smooth ride even on the 2.5 mile dirt road to my house.
I really enjoy this bike
