Yeah but, what would the weight comparison have been if the Serotta had a level top tube and the 'Dale wasn't a size 64? :)

Seriously though, a great review that impressed even carbon loving me. Of course, I read the "too muted" comment about CF to reinforce my knowledge that CF is more comfortable than steel, but still 17.3 pounds with those components is impressive. For the poster who wanted to know what a CDA weighs at the frame level, one might be able to deconstruct either from the component list or the Cervelo comment. Weightweenies think the Carbon Soloist is a pig - if my aging memory serves me maybe 1400 grams? But this review should eliminate all but the most dedicated weight shavers from the steel is too heavy argument and leave the debate to road feel/efficiency. Just don't ask Chris Boardman :)

Shameful to put carbon stays on a steel frame.
