Been seeing it for a year now.. not exactly new. Though it's good to see it IS going to the market, because they weren't so sure they were going to.

No, you didn't miss it.

The bike was out last year and got mixed reviews.  But it also the trend of the industry right now thanks to Look and Felt.  Integrated fork of some kind, brakes hidden underneath or within the frame, real low seat stays and hugging the rear wheel.

I'm a huge fan of Giant, but their version of the trend is just butt ugly .....

Its similar to a cross breed of a Look and a P3.  Looks very umm aggressive to say the least.

Also isn't it more important to go fast then looking cool or pretty?

I like it since I saw it last year. Still with the new Specialized Shiv and the Trek speed concept I KNOW I'll have to get a new bike next year, Trek is in the lead so far...

I think I remember reading the new Trek is an 2011 release, but it might be worth the wait!

Now why in the hell would you do that????

Your DA is one of the "fastest" designs out there and already incorporates everything these guys ripped off from Felt.

Dude, don't be a sell out .............

Yes but the Trek is just sexy and I've always like'em. I love my Felt and most likely they'll have a new model next year as well so that might make me recondiser

Personally I'm not a fan of the new Giant TT bike, however the Trek is looking pretty sick.
