Anybody have any plans to purchase one of these?

Just picked one up yesterday. The frame looks awesome, and I'm really looking forward to trying out the new Ultegra10 group. I had an old cannondale with ultegra first-gen STI, so it will be interesting to compare. Not sure about the rest of the components, but we'll see.

Did a little 20-mile loop yesterday. Road bike tech has come a looooong way since I bought my 89-ish cannondale! I rode some very broken, bumpy roads, and the aluminum/carbon mix on this frame and fork was downright plush. I was a bit concerned about the wheelset's ability to stand up to my 210lbs and the rough roads, but everything is still tight post-ride. The ultegra10 group is a marvel! Clicking up or down a gear (or two!) is precise and sure, even under power. Wow.

So far, really happy with this bike. Full-ultegra10 (minus cranks) and a sweet-riding carbon/alu frame for <$1300 is a killer.
