Very nice looking bike SKT, well done sir, well done! I believe that you'll enjoy the compact crankset, I have 50-34 and an 11-26 cassette on my CAAD 10 and it gives me a low and as high as I could ever need. Looking forward to your ride reports and some serious pie consumption pictures after the rides!!!!

Thanks, all... and every word is true. It's fast, comfortable, and stealthy. And I am *very* happy!
And, I have to be honest, aesthetics -looks- have a lot to do with purchasing decisions.
The subtle gray on black really appealed to me. That, and that it doesn't say "Felt" on every available surface.

Funny, too... I was going to say ..."but not slammed" but figured I'd leave it for someone else to say.
I laughed when I read CraigB's post. I still am.

Being happy with it is ALL that matters! Looks cool to me - very cool.

Nice bike, congrats!!

I'd be interested in reading an "old" vs "new" bike, comparison review. Things like road feel, quickness, overall speed, comfort, mechanical differences.
