The top tube is curved, with a slight slope. The seat stays are also curved. Both of these parts have an oval cross section. The seat tube is circular. No lovely cutaway shape, geometry doesn't look as tight. The seat tube cluster did not look as sturdy as my 2009. Playing with fire perhaps given the problems...
Fizik arione saddle with rapha striping, and new rapha pink grips.
Price point is around £500 for f&f, builds starting at £789.
I didn't like it. I think that the curve and slope makes it look like a rapha sponsored globe.
