Bottom line, 700-750 is a fair enough deal?

I'm not dead-set on a particular bike, but it looks like it could be a decent deal, and an available deal at that. I'm planning on Ironman Florida in the fall and was going to ride my Caad9 but after reading about a basically completely flat and fast ride, riding aero and having the geometry to go with it would be a big plus for me. I'm used to the Cannondale, and love it but it's heavy and doesn't have an aero set up. I've tried to set one up before, but the geomoetry is off and would be a few hundred bucks to convert so here we are.
In that case, I think you should go for it. Worst case is you pay $800 or whatever, decide you don't like the geometry, and then sell it again for around that price. Theoretically it is much better suited to the triathlon than your CAAD.
