Bought it next day. Have put about 100 on it so far, truly enjoy it.

What I like:
1: The FutureShock stem spring works great, far better than I'd have imagined. Adds comfort in normal ride position, and I was amazed how much it adds in the drops. Just never feel like you're fighting the steering.
2: The tires work for me. The bike comes with 32's, my concerns that they'd be too wide and/or slow were quickly allayed after the first long ride.
3: Disc brakes super excellent. Shimano RS505's.
4: Shimano 105's work very well.
5: Coming from the Roubaix, I had some belief in their Z-Serts. There is one in the seatpost, pretty helpful.
6. Well balanced, steady at high speeds.


Only real dislike was the seat, I switched out for a Sella Anatomica.

The bike is a real dream to ride, highly recommend you go try on out if you get a chance.
