IMHO, the level of finish on the welds is a little below where the Made-in-USA bikes were. They're still pretty smooth, to be sure, but my old F-1000 is nearly seamless on the main triangle.

I also think some of the other manufacturers have 'caught up' The CAAD 12 and the Specialized Allez Sprint have pretty comparable levels of fit and finish. (as they should, since they pretty much compete head-to-head)
