Well, it's gorgeous.

I got my first up close and personal look at a CAAD frame last week, when I assembled an R900 that I helped a friend find on e-bay. I was struck by the workmanship of it! So much so that when I go to test ride for my first CF race bike, I'm adding the aluminum CAAD 9 to the list. Though I wish I could find that 07 color scheme.

I've heard lots of things about the CAAD frames being very smooth riding, comparable to CF. Would you consider that accurate?
