Head tube, top tube, stays, and the size of the seat tube and down tube are different. However, I know that that PF frame is used almost generically by many supposed ''boutique'' manufacturers and it's probably a great frame.

Race to train
While I am sure the PF frame is great and capable TT frame, just beacuse they are both aero dosen't make them the same. By the same logic the denali bike is the same as the r3

You can't tell anything about the interior construction, hence, build quality of a carbon frame just by looking at it. Even if they slightly resemble each other.

if they put the word "blade" in the same font as "aero", they would sell twice as many, at a higher price.

I think there's something to be said for that. Of course, I would own a corvette years before I ever owned a porsche, because porsches are for tools.
Audi - now there's a car I could get into.
