Dead sexy bike. Love the EVO, but my wife doesn't love me enough to let me get one.

Of course, I'm actually with PCad and everyone here on the incremental weight savings. My CAAD9 weighs in at 16.5 with some fairly boring alloy wheels in a 32/28 spoke count, and with the bottle cages, and with the pedals on, computer, etc. Didn't really go ultra weight-weenie with the parts either...which means that if I tried I could easily push it down to 16 or even below. I haven't even weighed it with my lighter wheel set on.

So that's actually the biggest reason I haven't ponied up for the Supersix EVO. But I like to give my wife grief about it.
