What do you intend to do with the bike? If for fast exercise/group rides, then I don't think any steel frame comes remotely close to carbon.
On the other hand, any steel-framed bike is sufficient for any cyclist. You are not gonna fly on it, and all eyes (including mine) will be on your ride at the local group ride and at the local Starbucks. Especially if a Pegoretti/Sachs etc.
This is what I'm wanting to know. Assuming this isn't hyperbole, then it sounds like the supersix is a good option for me. I plan to use it for fast exercise and some long (day) rides in the mountains in the summers. It is going to be my new day to day riding bike. I want it to be an upgrade from my caad9 (not a replacement as it still has its place). On the other hand, I can't accept that a good steel frame can't meet my needs/wants - just maybe not in my price range. Yeah, everything is clear as mud.

Too similar. Already have a caad9.
