I like the bike, and I've primarily used the bike for longer rides. Rode it last summer on a long distance ride to Ely from St. Paul.

I think the frame geo is what makes that bike satisfying, more than the tube set.

Met a local racer yesterday that has a beautiful Pinarello Gavia which uses the TSX tubeset.

He reported the frame as being somewhat dead feeling, a phrase I've heard before with the TSX tubeset.
