"If you've got it to spend then this is the bike for you. Long happy hours in the saddle is what I've found. Not to mention the fastest bike I've ever riden."Sunward

Quality of Construction

The titanium frame is absolutley bullet proof. It soaks up the road as well as my old LeMond Buenos Aires steel frame while not nearly as flexi in the tight turns.

(5)

Fit

I ride the 53cm and love the fit.

(5)

Comfort

I swapped out the saddle for a Specialized Avatar and love the feel of the bike. Even with a fairly agressive fit I've taken this on century rides and come home feeling great. The newer models have a combo of titanium and carbon and from what I've heard are even easier on the skeleton.

Durability

I haven't laid it down (knock on wood) but I find it hard to imagine this bike ever getting hurt.

(5)

Value

This bike was given to me by a very dear friend in an exchange for some wines and I understand that this bike costs around 5k brand new. This is way more than I will ever pay for a bike but it rides and shifts like a dream and if I had it to spend this is the ride I would spend it on.

(5)

Appearance

A very sexy looking ride.

(5)

Performance

I set a new record for a bike split at Pac Grove last September only 2 months after getting this bike.

Strengths

The shifting on the Dura Ace component set is like telepathy. You just click and it's like hitting enter. The frame is solid and the response is instant.

Weakness

None that I can find. Maybe the saddle.
