I've never ridden a Cannondale racing bike, but the sport-touring bikes I've tried seemed extremely responsive to me. They were definitely not blind tests. I'm sure the fat tubes and the hype influenced me. I did NOT notice bone-jarring vibrations, though, and it felt as if I'd like the bike quite a bit.
