Summary: Was mostly mountain biking then decided I wanted to ride road again so talked to my LBS and ended up taking it home. Upgraded the bars to FSA K-Force Carbon, saddle to an SMP Glider, pedals are Look and got a bike fitting. This bike seems to like climbing and road vibration is virtually non-existant. Sweet ride.
Strengths: Looks, price and it is a comfy bike.
Weaknesses: The Shimano wheelset seems a bit heavy and doesn't seem to roll as quickly as my friends Kona and she has XeroLites. Stock seat is a bag-ripper - beware - couldn't ride for a week after using it.
