well, i can't comment on this or last year's cdale bikes but i've been riding the cdale multipsort 2000 from 1999 and i have no complaints. it's been with me from the start of my tri career through short and long course (3 ims) without fail. and i don't take particularly great care of my bike either. so fwiw, i'm a big cdale fan.

i believe tom d reviewed on of the new cdales recently at biksportmichigan.com.

Like my m5000 (2001) so much (6'2" 180) that I bought an r2000 as my road bike. No flex, great paint and is a great ride IMHO.

Have a 2005 IM 6000

I love it -comfortable ride - nice set up - all in all - I couldn't be happier

I sold my P2K to get on this and loved the P2K - so I was concerned it may not live up to my expectations - but it has exceeded them

I had an IM2000 last year for about 8 races. It was a very, very nice bike. I got it for three reasons: Fit was dialed for me, very comfotable, stiff at the BB and light (OK, that's four).

I put a full DA kit on it, Vision Techs, Zipp 909's. It was basically pretty sick. I loved it. The Slice frameset was good.
