Hmmm.... newbie poster, capitalizes the name of the bike, asks a couple questions, then welcomes positive comments.

But I have to chime in. The one thread offered up just had negative comments.
I've had my fetish since February and it's been a great bike. It's got ~ 4000 miles on it and I really like the feel of the bike and the performance of SRAM force. Upon close inspection, I can pretty easily see the lines where the carbon fiber is joined together. So far nothing looks odd, though the above thread does concern me enough to do frequent inspections. I'm only 145lbs, so that might help me get a long life out of the frame. I hope so, 'cause it's a smoooth ride. Based on my experience, highly worth it - especially for $1950.
