Thinking of getting an '05 Cannondale R5000 frame/forks, just looking at possible alternatives before I splash the cash.

Anyone know how it would compare to one of these? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Orbea-53cm-road-frame-and-forks_W0QQitemZ230050848736QQihZ013QQcategoryZ2267 9QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

We've got several people on our team who ride the Lobular 100 and the 50. Everyone who has one loves the bike. One guy had the Lobular 100 as an insurance replacement and had bought the Orca. He says he really can't tell the difference and sold his Lobular 100. I almost bought one, but I had to have steel...(thanks Carl)
