While I love my Sirrus X 5.0 Redwood, I believe the Trek is a better value. I plan on doing upgrades over the winter, but if that's not your thing, I think the Trek has better stock components.

I have a 2021 Sirrus X5 and love it. That said, it is overpriced for the components you get, especially with this year's price increase. If I was buying again, I'd seriously consider Trek.

I love them. I think the 12* is the perfect balance of comfort and performance. I never thought I'd notice the vibration dampening as much as was touted, but it makes a massive difference.

I didn't, although now you have me wishing I had. :) If I had to guess, it is probably in 200-225g range. I say that based on the Roval Terra carbon being 194g at 330mm, and mine is 350mm.
