An excellent frameset with good quality finishing kit at an attractive price, but the wheels are a touch underwhelming
Great value
Stiff and fast aero frameset
Smooth ride quality
Great handling
Neat cable routing
Easy cockpit adjustment
Clearance for 30mm tyres

Weight weenies will need to look elsewhere
