I've had this bike for over 2 months and put almost 1000 miles on her. Great equipment - everything is holding up nicely and I think it's aesthetically pleasing. I got the Team Replica version and receive compliments from fellow riders regularly. Ride can be bumpy on the bad streets of LA, but is smooth on good roads - in any event, the bike is built for speed. Love racing downhill! Haven't upgraded anything yet, but I think the wheels would be the first thing to go.

Got this bike after doing a lot of research. I was about to opt for a Trek Madone 3.1 or a Specialized Roubioux. I was absolutely glad I got the Super Six 5 105 compact instead. This baby is not only fast from the get-go but it also eats hills alive. Shimano 105 components do the job well, though it may be worth upgrading the components down the road. The high quality frameset makes it worthwhile in my opinion but what you get out of the box is more than fine. As for performance, the bike handles sharp turns wonderfully. But as with many road bikes, the Super Six 5 is tight with thre tarmac. You will feel every imperfection on the road, but likewise you will also glide across smooth surfaces. One thing is for sure, you will certainly not feel detached from the asphalt with this bike. All in all a terrific road bike and worth every penny.
