Yeah, I will definitely be experimenting with fit. I guess I assumed Cannodale, had a different philosophy than I did about road feel vs. comfort. Looks like my local bike shop doesn't stock them anymore. But something to consider if I get the opportunity. Re: comfort vs. aero, I'm also wondering if I shouldn't hang on to my current bike (which is pretty comfortable), and make the new one the more aero/aggressive one. Have to see where modern bikes fall in terms of all that, especially w/the trend towards wider tires and wheels nowadays.
