Does anybody have one of these? How does it ride? How big a performance advantage is there between the 2000 and 6000 if any?

I have a 2005 Ironman 2000 and I love it - but I’ve been a Cannondale bigot for a long time. Great ride, very comfortable compared to my last triathlon bike (QR Tequilo). Yes, I would buy another. I"m not sure that I can justify the cost of an upgrade to the 5000, however, unless you’re really into Campy.
I have the IM6000 - this years model.
Same frame as the 2000 - super comfortable ride - very nice bike.
The main difference is the color, campy record groupset and a few little things here and there - seat,bars etc.
It is a very nice bike.

Just received my IM 2000 a few days ago. It’s a 2004 model, but brand new and basically the same as the 2005. The verdict? Love it!!! Light, very stiff in the bottom bracket area, and also in terms of lateral flex. Great component spec, and outstanding graphics (if you can get past the m.dot logo…)
Frame quality is outstanding, expecially the welds…works of art.
