Good bike, rideable out of the box (might want to dig out a spoke wrench for some _minor_ truing), so upgrades can be done when/if you feel like it later on.

No exp. with the Hour, though I considered it also. The geometry is slightly more relaxed... it's 4130... there seem to be alot of variables where you're not sure exactly what you're going to get. In the end, the TT was the better bike, at least on paper.

Oh... and make sure to put aside a little $ for when/if you feel like changing the gearing. The stock 48:16 is a little tall for some places.
