i have heard many people say that the madone sucks but the 5900 SL is a great bike. my question is, what separates the two aside from some slight weight differences and the madone's areo tubing? I found one thread where five or six people just went on and on about how bad the madone is, but never said why. I've heard that the finish is sub par for the money, but that doesn't make it an aweful bike. BTW, not looking to buy one, just curious.
