Just got a few of these built up at the shop I work for and I have to say...I'm impressed. 54cm 5.2 is sub 16lbs for $3200. The bike looks even better in person. Ultegra SL is quite attractive, the new Bonty Race Lites are just downright sexy, and the frame is very well designed IMO. They brought back a little of the old school Trek logo for the headbadge and on the top tube.

Some people won't like the integrated BB and headset design, but I'm starting to just accept that this is the way things are going. I don't think it's going to be hard to source bearings for these things and since you can use any of the Shimano cranksets I don't see a problem. Much better then needing a proprietary crankset IMO.

Anyway, I'm excited to get the 58cm built up because I would love to take one for a test spin. I have a feeling these things will be flying off the shelves very quickly.
