very nice features. unhelpful geometry for the typical higher-end triathlete, that is, chris lieto would do great on it, faris or normann or torbjorn would do less well on it.
if you like the look's features, but need a normann position, look at the felt DA. if you want lieto's position, the 496 is a very nice bike. Dan Empfield aka Slowman
Depends on fit but the adjustable stem leaves options. I saw a few at races this season and they are definitely very nice. Luke Bell was on one this season and liked the fit and geometry better compared to the Giant Trinity he rode last season.
