CDA ride report

Good morning gang.
Just got back from the 1st ride on my new for me 2004 CDA with F2 folk and new Ultegra triple build kit. (Bought the frame fork from a forumite)
Awesome riding bike. I've been riding my Legend Ti as my primary bike since getting it new in 2001. I also have owned a Calfee Tetra Pro carbon and a IF Crown Jewel steel in the last several years.
Gotta tell you that the CDA ride quality (For me) was better than all of them including the Legend.
The CDA front end was incredibility solid. It descended and cornered as if it was on a rail. I didn't feel even a hint of flex when I hammered all I had in the biggest gear I could push up the last short hill on the ride. Also almost felt like I was riding on a fully suspended bike. Compliant and stiff at the same time!!
Great riding bike and highly recommneded.
BTW I've been waiting for one of these to show up on the board for some time. I really didn't want a sloping top tube but when this one showeed up i decided to jump on it. Actually looks pretty racey.
Check it out.
Dan

Not too bad for an ol' one-legged guy.

Nice bike too!
