Riding an old Cannondale Mountain Bike upgraded to a hybrid but, looking to buy my first carbon.
Maybe I can get some advice:
I am down to two bikes:
1.) Motobecane Le Champion CF Ltd - $1495

(Bicycling Magazine just get this bike a pretty decent review in Sept 09 issue)
2.) Cannondale Synapse Carbon 5 Compact - $1995

It seems the Motobecane has better components while the Cannondale has a better frame? I am leaning Motobecane... because I think I will be getting more bike and saving $500.
I would really like to hear your opinions.
