Its distinctive look garners a fair amount of attention, all of it positive. Nice touches such as internal cable routing for clean look, especially with the standard Campy gruppo. Limited quantities have been available, and thus it will not soon have Trek-like ubiquity. And, until tomorrow morning, it won the TdF!

First off, I hate you. Now that that's out of the way...

How has the CNT frame been holding up? I'm curious about the front/rear dropouts and the headset bearing cups since they're made out of CF too. I weigh about 197# and (hopefully) might be able to pick up one of these in the off season if the money fairy is good to me...
