What is the thought on the 2003 Scattante CFR (carbon full ultegra with shimano 540 wheelset)? Supergo seems to offer a deal that is too good to be true, and I wonder if it is? I am a pretty light rider (160#) so i think carbon might be pretty ideal. I am basically planning to use it for training and a few triathlons/local races, nothing too serious, at least yet.
Any one had any long term experience with Scattante as a company? My buddy has their steel frame and likes it, but that is one person. Any help appreciated.

I have the 2004 CFR, and love it. It rides nicely and seems rigid, even at my 240 Lbs. I hit 46.8 MPH with it down a curvy stretch of road, and it tracked very nicely and seemed rock steady. I got it at the store, and they swapped out the stem and dialed in the fit. the only thing I am still debating is whether or not I should swap out the saddle, everything else is top notch.
