currently riding the trinity alliance AO , the carbon-alu one. Great frame..great value compared to many euro all carbon frames . I thnk you can get th eframe for like 1799. Slightly longer head tube so it can be fit slightly higher with out a bunch of spacers. My back sucks so Il like a loner/taller hea tube. Nice tri geometry , sort of standard....can push the seat forward and go super steep , or push it back. The carbon-aluminum frame is great in my oponion. Ive been riding for almost 25 years, and the stiffness of the BB is solid,but teh frame is comfortable overall. Id give it a thumbs up...Maybe not "super" light, but who cares...go on a diet and lose 3 or 4 lbs...thats a lot easier, and cheaper. Again, I come back to the cost, hard to beat 1799 for the frame /fork compared to many bikes these days.

YES! You'll be able to easily find your bike in transition. It'll be the one without the word "Cervelo" written on the side.

I agree with you the Giant Trinity A1 is a bargain priced machine. The fit was important as I have short legs but a long torso so the Giant was a great fit. I could not beat it for the money and I shop hard.
