I had the Pro Carbon for many years and was very happy with it. Paid just under 1k in 2008 for part-Dura Ace equipped, stock PX wheels and kit, etc. which seemed reasonable at the time, so yes £749 for SRAM Rival 22 is excellent value IMO, and I would definitely have it on my short list if I was in the market for a road bike at <1k right now. As it is, I sold it in order to finance a PX London Road since I needed a more functional bike with clearances for wider tyres, rack mounts, etc. The Pro Carbon has old-school race bike clearances, i.e. 25c max, or 23c with skinny mudguards (Raceblades).

I've got a Planet X Pro Carbon, albeit a self-build rather than a Planet X build. It's reasonably light and comfortable, with fairly upright and relaxed geo. It's not the stiffest frame in the world, by a long chalk. If I give it the beans in a sprint I can feel the frame moving, and mine gets quite bad speed flutter at over 50mph, but keep it below 50mph and it behaves itself nicely.
Anyone have any experience with the Planet X Pro Carbon model? £749 for Sram Rival 22 and a full carbon F&F seems filthy good value.: http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/CBPXSLPRIV22/planet-x-pro-carbon-sram-rival-11-road-bike
I don't need it, I can't really afford it, my wife will kill me, but I can't help but be a little tempted.
