Well, I don't think the bike will help me on the climbs so much - I give up about 15-18kg to most of the climber types and 100-200gm savings aint gonna make that up. On climbing races, I am nowhere in the picture and that won't change for a while. On rollers, I let myself get gapped a little (to save my matches) and I make it up on the downhills - an aero bike would let me get back on a little faster.

But yeah, everything I have read - including above - about the Foil indicates that it is a great riding bike.

What has been harder to get is how the Venge compares to either of these 2 bikes.
